The Gospel reading is from the book of...”  

 

Luke 9:11-17 (ICB)

11 But the people learned where Jesus went and followed him. Jesus welcomed them and talked with them about God’s kingdom. He healed those who needed to be healed.
12 Late in the afternoon, the 12 apostles came to Jesus and said, “No one lives in this place. Send the people away. They need to find food and places to sleep in the towns and countryside around here.”
13 But Jesus said to them, “You give them something to eat.”
They said, “We have only five loaves of bread and two fish. Do you want us to go buy food for all these people?” 14 (There were about 5,000 men there.)
Jesus said to his followers, “Tell the people to sit in groups of about 50 people.”
15 So the followers did this, and all the people sat down. 16 Then Jesus took the five loaves of bread and two fish. He looked up to heaven and thanked God for the food. Then Jesus divided the food and gave it to the followers to give to the people. 17 All the people ate and were satisfied. And there was much food left. Twelve baskets were filled with pieces of food that were not eaten.

 “The Gospel of the Lord”,

 “Praise to you Lord Jesus Christ”
(*)Tell an interesting story according to the Gospel and children’s level of understanding like in the Gospel reflection:  
====  7:24 - 7:27 ====
Gospel Reflection.
What happened?  What exactly did Jesus do?  <discuss>  Can anyone tell me what hunger is? <response>  Does hunger have to be for food?

Say:    Being hungry means that a person really needs something, something very important.  Sometimes a person might be hungry for a friend…. Or a hug…. Can you think of something else a person might really need… that they might be hungry for?  <discuss>  If we let him, Jesus satisfies our hunger for love.

Ask the Holy Spirit to guide you to do the right thing in the coming week.

Profession of our faith
I believe in God the Father, Almighty,
Creator of heaven and earth:
And in Jesus Christ, his only begotten Son, our Lord: --bow down--
Who was conceived by the power of the Holy Spirit,
born of the Virgin Mary:
Suffered under Pontius Pilate;
was crucified, died and was buried:
He descended into hell:
And the third day He rose again from the dead: He ascended into heaven,
and seated at the right hand of God the Father Almighty:
From there He shall come again to judge the living and the dead:
I believe in the Holy Spirit:
the holy catholic church:
the communion of saints:
The forgiveness of sins:
The resurrection of the body:
And the life everlasting.
Amen.

Liturgy of the Word
First Reading
Proverbs is a book that contains a lot of types of teaching. This particular poem is a poem that teaches us about a virtue or character trait called Wisdom.  Wisdom is used as a character that speaks to us about one of the persons or our God.
Now give to the child to start reading the first reading below.

Today’s first reading is from the first New Testament book of Proverbs 8:22-31 (ICB)

22 “I, wisdom, was with God when he began his work.
    This was before he made anything else long ago.
23 I was appointed in the very beginning,
    even before the world began.
24 I began before there were oceans.
    There were no springs overflowing with water.
25 I began before the hills were there.
    The mountains had not even been put in place.
26 God still had not made the earth or fields.
    He had not even made the first dust of the earth.
27 I was there when God put the skies in place, when he stretched the horizon over the oceans.
28 I was there when he made the clouds above.I was there when he put the fountains in the oceans.
29 I was there when he ordered the sea
    not to go beyond the borders he had set for it.
I was there when he laid the earth’s foundation.
30     I was like a child by his side.
I was happy every day
    and enjoyed being in his presence.
31 I enjoyed the whole world.
    And I was happy with all its people.

The word of the Lord, …

Responsorial Psalm
O Lord, our God, how wonderful your name in all the earth!

The Gospel reading is from the book of...” John 16:12-15 (ICB)


12 “I have many more things to say to you, but they are too much for you now.13 But when the Spirit of truth comes He will lead you into all truth. He will not speak His own words. He will speak only what He hears and will tell you what is to come. 14 The Spirit of truth will bring glory to me. He will take what I have to say and tell it to you. 15 All that the Father has is mine. That is why I said that the Spirit will take what I have to say and tell it to you.

 “The Gospel of the Lord”,

 “Praise to you Lord Jesus Christ”

Gospel Reflection.
Say: Jesus himself said, “I have much more to say to you, but right now it would be more than you can understand. 
It’s okay not to understand everything about GodTruthfully, no one understands it all We are all learning…. Which person of the Trinity helps us learn and understand?  <the Holy Spirit>
