Follow the Biblical events of Easter week with your family using these free Holy Week printables I’ve been thinking for a while now that I don’t really know the Biblical events leading up to Easter that well. I know the basics—The triumphal entry into Jerusalem on Palm Sunday, the Last Supper, Jesus’ trial and crucifixion,...

The visiting teaching message for August is titled “Living a Consecrated Life.” Consecrating our lives to God means that we are giving our whole selves—not just our material possessions—to God.
