Read John 15:4-5. In order to remain in Jesus, the True Vine, you must already be one of the branches. When were you "born" onto the True Vine? When did you first receive the light and life of Jesus? The day of your Baptism was a day filled with so many, many gifts. Please write these verses (or part of them) and draw the day you were "born" onto the True Vine. Also, listen next Sunday to hear where part of this Scripture is read or sung at Mass!
Level II (1st-2nd) The Maxims The Maxims of Jesus help us know how to remain on the True Vine. Take a look at the Maxims. Which Maxims help you love God? Which ones help you love your neighbor? Which Maxim could you work on living well today so that you remain? | Level III (3rd-6th) The Talents (Matthew 25:14-30) Read Matthew 14-30. A talent was about one year's wage and weighed between 60-75 pounds. This master is so generous!! God has been generous to us as well and has given each of us unique gifts and abilities which we call talents. Make a list of talents God has given you. How can you write on the blank page of today by using those talents to share Jesus' light? |
