Liturgical New Year

Simple handwriting/copy work practice craft for Liturgical New Year. Make scrolls of all or part of Isaiah 61:1-2 the passage Jesus quoted when he announced his mission to the world in the synagogue. According to Holy Tradition, this event happened on September 1. Christ would have read the passage from a scroll too. This year we glued our paper to straws, but in the past we’ve used popsicle sticks. As followers of Christ, these things should also be our mission. Just like with “New Year’s Resolutions” in January, this can be a good time to set spiritual goals with your family for the year and talk about ways you can make Christ’s mission your mission.
