Spy Wednesday [View all]

In Christianity, Spy Wednesday, also called Holy Wednesday and Good Wednesday, commemorates disciple Judas Iscariot's betrayal of Jesus for 30 pieces of silver. It occurs on the Wednesday before Easter.

I found this tidbit online at saintcatherine51.org:

How do you celebrate Spy Wednesday?

I hide 30 pieces of silver (dimes, nickels, quarters) around the house and the kids go on a spy hunt to find them. It's finders-keepers. We talk about how in Holy Week leading up to Easter, Judas betrays Jesus by “ratting” out his location so the chief priests (Sanhedrin) can arrest Jesus.


I wonder if there's a Spy Wednesday bunny.
