HOLY WEEK AND EASTER FOR THE CHILDREN Palm Sunday (5th April) The Children attending 9am Mass on Palm Sunday are asked to bring small leafy branches or banners to carry in the procession around the church. The banners could read, for example, ‘Hosanna’, ‘Hurrah for Jesus’, ‘We love you Jesus’ or something similar. Good Friday At 10.00a.m. at St. Felix, there will be Stations of the Cross especially for all the children. Parents are welcome to accompany them. Easter Sunday There will be an Easter Garden in the Lady Chapel at St. Felix for the children to look at.
