There’s something special about sharing a spiritual experience with a loved one. This Easter, consider inviting others into your celebration of the Savior’s Atonement, even if they’re far away.
This could mean discussing Holy Week together over the phone or agreeing to individually study the scriptures detailing Jesus’s last week. As we join with others to learn how Christ spent the days before His Resurrection, we will not only feel the reality of His Atonement, but we will also be following the First Presidency’s recent invitation to “seek this Jesus of whom the prophets and apostles have written” (Ether 12:41).
Holy Week Cards
If you need help deciding how to celebrate Easter, the Holy Week Study Card Set is a simple and family-friendly resource. This eight-card set is easy to mail to a loved one or gift to a friend. Each card has an illustration, a summary of what Christ did that day, a few related scriptures, and a reflective question.
How to Use the Cards
Here are a few ideas on how you can use the cards during Holy Week. Consider sharing these ideas with your family members and friends.
- Put a card on your fridge at the beginning of each day.
- Read one card during daily family scripture study.
- Read all the cards together during home evening or a Sunday family devotional.
- Keep the cards on your nightstand to read in the morning or before you go to bed.
- Incorporate some of the events into your week, e.g., display palm leaves in your home in honor of Christ’s entry into Jerusalem.
- Have your kids read a card on the way to school each morning in the car.
- Read one card each evening around the dinner table.
You can also display the cards on this print stand in a high-traffic area of your home.

Cherishing the Miracle
“The fundamental principles of our religion are the testimony of the Apostles and Prophets, concerning Jesus Christ, that He died, was buried, and rose again the third day, and ascended into heaven; and all other things which pertain to our religion are only appendages to it.”
This year, let’s cherish the miracle of Easter and keep Christ’s Atonement central in our lives. When we take time to ponder His Resurrection and study the Savior’s example, Easter can become more than a spring holiday—it can become a celebration of endless hope.
