My Saviour……
==== 7:00 - 7:03 ====
Welcome: Today
we hear how Jesus asks his disciples who they think he is and how Peter says
that Jesus is the Christ, the Son of God. Let's think about how we also know
who Jesus is and why our faith is so important to us.
Focus: Memory
Verse
Luke 9:24“..Whoever wants to save his life, will lose it. And whoever gives his
life for me, will save it...”
In the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Spirit.

May The
Grace of our Lord Jesus Christ,

Liturgy of the Word
First Reading
In this
reading,
Zechariah tells us of what will
happen in the future. God gives him the vision of what will happen- Jesus’
death.
Now give to
the child to start reading the first reading below.
Today’s
first reading is from the old Testament book of Zechariah
12:10-13:1 (ICB)
Crying for the One They
Stabbed
10
“I will give David’s family and people in Jerusalem a spirit of kindness and
mercy. They will look at me, the one they have stabbed. And they will cry like
someone crying over the death of an only child. They will be as sad as someone
who has lost a firstborn son. 11 At that time there will be much crying in
Jerusalem. It will be like the crying for Hadad Rimmon in the plain of Megiddo.
12 The land will cry. Each family will cry alone. The family of David and their
wives will cry. The family of Nathan and their wives will cry. 13 The family of
Levi and their wives will cry. The family of Shimei and their wives will cry.
14 And all the rest of the families and their wives will cry.
13
“At that time a fountain will be opened. It will be for David’s descendants and
for the people of Jerusalem. It will cleanse them of their sins and wrongs.”
This is the word of the Lord, …
Responsorial Psalm
We are his people, the sheep of his flock.
Introducing
the Gospel
This setting takes place at the time when Jesus
first began to teach people. Many people
were confused as to who he really was. They
thought he was a great prophet who taught about God…like Elijah or John the
Baptist (Jesus’ cousin). In this
reading, Jesus was talking to Peter and trying to help him understand more
about why he came to earth and what was going to happen later.
..with
Alleluia!! -,
Welcoming the Gospel
You are welcome Lord of Lords,
You are welcome King of Kings
You are welcome Lord of Hosts
You are welcome Prince of Peace..
You are welcome here, Alle-lluia,
Alle..lluia Might God!!!
Silently say:” Cleanse my heart
and my lips, almighty God, that I may worthily proclaim your Holy Gospel to
your little children.
The Lord be with You,
AND with your Spirit
The Gospel reading is
from the book of...”
Luke 9:18-24 (ICB)
Jesus Is the Christ.
18 One time when
Jesus was praying alone, his followers came to gether there. Jesus asked them, “Who
do the people say I am?”
19 They
answered, “Some say you are John the Baptist. Others say you are Elijah.[a] And others say you are one of the
prophets from long ago who has come back to life.”
20 Then
Jesus asked, “And
who do you say I am?”
Peter
answered, “You are the Christ from God.”
21 Jesus
warned them not to tell anyone. Then he said, 22 “The Son of Man
must suffer many things. He will be rejected by the Jewish elders, the leading
priests, and the teachers of the law. The Son of Man will be killed. But after
three days he will be raised from death.”
23 Jesus
went on to say to all of them, “If
anyone wants to follow me, he must say ‘no’ to the things he wants. Every day
he must be willing even to die on a cross, and he must follow me. 24 Whoever wants to
save his life will lose it. And whoever gives his life for me will save it.
“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.
So
Peter, by saying that Jesus is the Christ, the Son of God, is telling the other
disciples that Jesus is very important. He's saying that Jesus is our saviour
Ask: What did Jesus say to Peter?
<discuss> Jesus said to “forget
about yourself and take up his cross”.
What do you think that means?
<discuss>
Say: Jesus taught us all about love. Jesus’ cross reminds us about his love for
all of us. To follow Jesus, we need to
forget about our own selfish needs and show his love to others.
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.
