TAKE TIME TO CHAT
  • In today’s Gospel, Jesus teaches us not to be greedy. Why is greed a bad thing? 
  • In what way was the rich man in the story greedy? 
  • What is Jesus trying to teach us in this story? 
ACTIVITY

Gratitude Walk 

Go on a family walk. Talk about what you are thankful for, whether from the day or something you see on your walk.

PRAYER

Gratitude Prayer 

In today's Gospel, Jesus warns us about greed. Spend time today thanking God for His gifts and for one another. 

Take turns praying spontaneously, thanking God for all the things he has provided for you. Be sure to show gratitude for one another, good friends, jobs, and all the spiritual and material blessings you have. 

Close your prayer with a Glory Be: 

Glory be to the Father, and to the Son, and to the Holy Spirit. As it was in the beginning, is now and ever shall be, world without end. Amen. 

LITURGY LINK

Our greatest treasure on earth as Catholics is the Eucharist. When we are not at Mass, the Eucharist is stored in a special place called a tabernacle. Find the Tabernacle at your parish before or after Mass today. Stop to say a prayer to Jesus.
