Do you have flashlights at home ready for an emergency? We need to be ready to show our lights for
Jesus....

Opening Prayer
Loving God, you have
taught us that faith means knowing that something is real even
if we do not see it,
we pray that we keep our faith only in you.… Amen
=== 7:14 - 7:24 ====
Liturgy of the Word
(Hebrews 11:1-2,8-12)This reading talks about FAITH. Can anyone tell me what faith is? <discuss –
Faith is believing> We will hear about a man who had a lot of FAITH in God. Let’s listen closely and see if we can hear the
message God wants us to hear today.
Today’s first reading is from the New Testament letter to the
Hebrews
11:1-2, 8-12
Faith
11 Faith means
being sure of the things we hope for. And faith means knowing that something is
real even if we do not see it. 2 People who lived in the past
became famous because of faith.
8 It was by
faith Abraham obeyed God’s call to go to another place that God promised to
give him. He left his own country, not knowing where he was to go.9 It was by faith that he lived
in the country God promised to give him. He lived there like a visitor who did
not belong. He lived in tents with Isaac and Jacob, who had received that same
promise from God. 10 Abraham was
waiting for the city[a]that has real
foundations—the city planned and built by God.
11 He was too
old to have children, and Sarah was not able to have children. It was by faith
that Abraham was made able to become a father. Abraham trusted God to do what
he had promised.[b] 12 This man was
so old that he was almost dead. But from him came as many descendants as there
are stars in the sky. They are as many as the grains of sand on the seashore
that cannot be counted.
This is the word of the Lord, …
Responsorial Psalm
O Lord, hear my prayer.
Introducing
the Gospel
Today’s Gospel reading comes from
the book of St. Luke. (Luke
12:35-40) If you were up late and
waiting for someone to come home, what would you do? <leave the lights on> Would you do that if you didn’t think that
they were coming?> Jesus has a teaching
story (a parable) for us to hear today about servants who kept their lamps
burning while they waited for their master to come home. Let’s see what Jesus said about keeping your
lights ready for him.
With Alleluia!!, let’s
welcome the Gospel.
Alle-lu Alle-lu Alle-lu Alle-lluia,
Lets praise the Lord,
Alle-lu Alle-lu Alle-lu Alle-lluia,
Lets praise the Lord,
Alle-luia, Lets Praise the Lord
Alle-luia, Lets Praise the Lord
Alle..lluia Lets praise the Lord!!!
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 12:35-40 (ICB)
Always Be Ready
35 “Be ready! Be dressed for service
and have your lamps shining. 36 Be like servants who
are waiting for their master to come home from a wedding party. The master
comes and knocks. The servants immediately open the door for him.37 Those servants will
be blessed when their master comes home, because he sees that his servants are
ready and waiting for him. I tell you the truth. The master will dress himself
to serve and tell the servants to sit at the table. Then the master will serve
them. 38 Those servants might
have to wait until midnight or later for their master. But they will be happy
when he comes in and finds them still waiting.
39 “Remember this: If
the owner of the house knew what time a thief was coming, then the owner would
not allow the thief to enter his house. 40 So you also must be
ready! The Son of Man will come at a time when you don’t expect him!”
“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.
Say: Today’s Gospel reading comes
from the book of St. Luke. (Luke
12:35-40) If you were up late and
waiting for someone to come home, what would you do? <leave the lights on> Would you do that if you didn’t think that
they were coming?> Jesus has a

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.
