Building Blocks Church Challenge
Using building blocks such as Legos, K'nex, Lincoln Logs, etc., create things you see at your parish (i.e., altar, organ, pews, etc.). Have different family members create different parts and then bring them all together to see if you can replicate the inside of your church.
Love One Another
This prayer echoes the words and teachings of Jesus in today's Gospel.
Heavenly Father,
your holiness, revealed in Jesus,
challenges us to renounce violence,
to forsake revenge,
and to love without discrimination, without measure.
Teach us the surpassing truth of the Gospel,
which puts worldly wisdom to shame,
that we may recognize as one with us
even our enemies and persecutors
and see all people as your children.
We ask this through Christ our Lord.
Amen.
