Week 5: Service

Loving God means responding to the needs of others in your community and around the world.

Sunday: During the Sunday of the Judge think about perseverance.  We must practice our Christian values, pray, and worship continuously in order to keep our eternal happiness.

Monday: Read about the Good Samaritan in Luke 10:25-37.  Help an elderly person with the housework.

Tuesday: Look in the newspaper and find social injustices (such as hunger and discrimination).  Think of ways you can help.

Wednesday: Visit someone who is ill or alone.  Read Matthew 25:35-40.

Thursday: Work together as a family to get a job done around the house.  Thank God for each family member's contribution.

Friday: Take part in a church or community activity that promotes social justice.

Saturday:  Focus on the story of St. Gregory the Enlightener.  How did he serve God?
