The Jonah Play (PDF)

Author(s): DCE

The Prophet Jonah is prominently featured during the services of Holy Week in the Orthodox Church. His brief book, found in the Old Testament, is read in its entirety during the Vesperal Liturgy celebrated on Holy Saturday. Jonah himself is referred to in the hymnography of Holy Week. So, he is the focus of this year's activities for Great Lent from the Department of Christian Education of The Orthodox Church in America. Included here are a play written by Shawn Cunningham (www.BigCreekPress.com), and a few puzzles and activities.
