TAKE TIME TO CHAT
  • In today’s Gospel, Jesus continues to teach his disciples how to behave. Share one way you have lived as a disciple of Jesus this week.
  • What does today’s Gospel teach us about criticizing others?
  • Jesus also talks a lot about fruit in today’s Gospel. Jesus teaches us that a person with a loving heart produces good things, but a person with an evil heart produces bad things. What kind of fruit do you want to produce?
ACTIVITY

Honor a Saint

Pick one or more saints that are special to your family. Do an Internet search to find a picture or illustration of the saint. Then pick a way to artistically display them in your home. Some ideas include:

  • Paint their picture on wooden laundry pins, canvas, paper, fabric, or a different surface.
  • Draw the saint's face on paper plates.
  • Find clothes from around your house. Stuff the clothes with newspaper to give it form. Blow up a balloon, draw a face on it, and add felt or yarn for hair and other decorations. Seat the "saint" at your table as an extra guest at a meal tonight.

Take some time to share what you know about this saint and ask for his/her prayers for a specific intention this week.

PRAYER

Prayer for All Saints

Almighty and everlasting God, 

You gave us Saints so that we can honor You by recognizing Your redemptive work in them and that we have shining examples and powerful intercessors in our lives. They received blessings and righteousness from You because they belonged to a generation that sought only You. Allow me today to appreciate them for their past merits and their present prayers offered in the sight of Your divine majesty so that my life, too, may become an oblation pleasing to You.

Amen.
