Monday 14th April
Today marks the beginning of Holy Week. Take a moment to think about the week ahead for you – will you be able to make time this week to travel the journey with Jesus through the Last Supper, to Good Friday, through crucifixion to resurrection and new life.How can you make space amongst this week to listen to what God is saying and how this ancient story might help you with your spiritual journey at the moment?

Tuesday 15th April
Consider how God is love, and where there is love, there is God. Leave a note, or send a text message, to tell somebody you love them or you're grateful for them.
Pray for them as you write.

Wednesday 16th April
Consider how your story is part of God's story. What has God been doing in your life? Give thanks.

Thursday 17th April
Today is Maundy Thursday, the day we mark the meal Jesus ate with his disciples before his crucifixion.
On this day, could you pray for all those living in fear of what is to come – perhaps waiting for a conviction or a decision that will affect their future, those fearful about going into work, or afraid for their own safety. Perhaps someone you know is in this situation – how can you be a support to them this week?

Friday 18th April
It's Good Friday, the day when we mark Jesus' death on the cross. It is a painful story, which might be triggering for all of us dealing with our own stories of grief and young lives lost.
Hold the space today, if that is you. Seek help. Talk to someone.
If it's not you, and you have the courage to reach out to someone with their own journey of grief, consider sending a message, or saying a prayer.

Saturday 19th April
Today is the in-between day. The day between death and resurrection. The waiting day.
Hold the space for lament today. What do you need to grieve and let go of? How can lament help you respond to the needs of the world and community around you?
