Everyone is packing, preparing to go on a vacation, busy on planning, booking ticket for a good trip but what is really the meaning of  this Easter season? Here is a list as an Easter week date with the Lord to help us draw our attention back to this season’s real meaning.

Just like Christmas, everyone is busy for everything not thinking why we are celebrating this season. It is because we celebrate the most significant event happened to these whole existence., the Atonement of Christ. But how can we really remember Him this and celebrate it? This idea is not only for Lenten Season, it is for everyday or time to time activity for a week.

Day 1:  On the fifth day before Passover, Jesus rode into Jerusalem on a donkey as was prophesied. People recognized Him as their King, shouted “Hosanna,” and placed their garments and palm fronds on the ground in front of the donkey. (Matthew 21:1–11; Mark 11:1–11; Zechariah 9:9)

Day 2: For the second time during His mortal ministry, Jesus cleansed the courts of the temple. “My house shall be called the house of prayer; but ye have made it a den of thieves,” He told the money changers (Matthew 21:13). Then many of the blind and the lame came to Him in the temple, and He healed them. But when the chief priests and the scribes saw His miracles, they became angry and sought for a way to destroy Him. (Matthew 21:12–17; Mark 11:15–19)

Day 3: Throughout the week, the Savior delivered some of His most memorable sermons, including His teachings about the widow’s mite. (Mark 12:41–44; Luke 21:1–4)

Day 4: During His last meal, Jesus promised His apostles that they would receive the Comforter, or Holy Ghost, when He was gone. He taught them to remember Him by partaking of the sacrament. At the end of the evening, Jesus offered the Intercessory Prayer, where He prayed that the disciples might become one in unity. (Matthew 26:17–30; Mark 14:12–26; Luke 22:14–32; John 13–17)

Day 5: In the Garden of Gethsemane, the Savior knelt and prayed, His agony for the sins of the world causing Him “to tremble because of pain, and to bleed at every pore, and to suffer both body and spirit” (D&C 19:18). Soon Judas Iscariot and a multitude of armed men arrested Jesus, and all the disciples forsook the Lord and fled. (Matthew 26:36–56; Mark 14:32–50; Luke 22:39–53)

Day 6: After an illegal trial and cruel scourging, Jesus Christ allowed Himself to be crucified, completing the “great and last sacrifice” that made salvation possible for all the children of God (see Alma 34:14–15). Before nightfall, Jesus’s followers removed His body from the cross, dressed Him in linen and spices, and laid Him in a tomb. (SeeMatthew 27; Luke 23; Mark 15; John 19)

Day 7: Sunday morning dawned, and Mary Magdalene and other faithful women arrived at the tomb to further anoint Jesus’s body. They found the stone of the tomb rolled away and two angels who declared joyous tidings: “He is not here: for he is risen” (Matthew 28:6). The resurrected Savior had conquered physical death and made it possible for each of us to live again: “For as in Adam all die, even so in Christ shall all be made alive” (1 Corinthians 15:22). (Matthew 28; Mark 16; Luke 24; John 20)

May we celebrate this season with purpose and may we have a great personal moment with the Lord as we go through this Easter season with the Easter week date guide.
