Some Easter poems
“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. Whatever you’re doing, take some time to read and reflect on the events leading to Jesus’ arrest, crucifixion and resurrection.
