Our children between Holy Week and Purim
Hebrew speaking Catholic children had to contend with Holy Week and Purim coinciding this year.
On Thursday, March 24, 2016, Holy Thursday coincided with the children’s celebration of Purim in the Saint James Vicariate. During the day, the children dressed up as children do in Jewish society in Israel. In the evening, at the mass, some children helped with the washing of the feet and others had their feet washed.
