Red Cloud's Students and Parish Community Celebrate Holy Week

posted April 18, 2014

All across the reservation, staff, students and community members in Red Cloud’s parish were immersing themselves in spiritual contemplation during this Holy Week.

Just the other morning, Sequoia, a first grader, traced and cut out bunny ears to paste on his report about rabbits as another student sat across the room reading a story about the lives of Jesus and his disciples.

The next day, fifth graders performed a Passion Play at an all-school Mass and down the road in Oglala, ministers and pastoral staff prepared for a community gathering on Good Friday.

This week at Red Cloud High School, students presented powerpoint presentations on the meaning of the Eucharist and the Easter holiday to their classmates in James Flannery’s religion class, and staff picked up their Easter Hams for Sunday’s dinner.

In the Holy Rosary Church, teachers and students walked past the star quilt-inspired stained-glass windows as they took in unique artwork illustrating the stations of the cross, as depicted by four Lakota artists.

It is truly a season of love, learning and deep reflection here on campus. From everyone at Red Cloud Indian School, we wish you a Happy Easter!
