“Holy Week” is easily lost among the busyness of college life. You may be facing heavy assignments and frenzied activities, or you may be in the middle of your spring break. No matter what you’re doing this week, take some time to read and reflect on the events leading to Jesus’ arrest, crucifixion and resurrection. Here are a few poems and some suggested Scripture readings to help you reflect.
