Liturgy of the Word
Introduce the first reading.
Moses spent a lot of his time teaching
the Israelites. In today’s reading (Deuteronomy4:39-40),
he is talking to the Israelites about how there is only one God that they must
obey. In that time in history, people
believed in many gods…. gods of earth and wind, gods of the ocean and the sun. Moses’ job was to teach people that there is
just one God to love and obey. Listen to
the reading and see which person of the Trinity Moses was familiar with.
A prepared child/children come and take the reading.
Deuteronomy 4:39-40 (NKJV)
39 Therefore
know this day, and consider it in your heart, that the Lord Himself is God in
heaven above and on the earth beneath; there is no other. 40 You shall
therefore keep His statutes and His commandments which I command you today,
that it may go well with you and with your children after you, and that you may
prolong your days in the land which the Lord your God is giving you for all
time.”
“This is the word of the Lord”
All say “Thanks
be to God”.
Ask: Which person of the Trinity
did you hear about? <probably God the Father, possibly God the
Holy Spirit>
Say: Let
us now focus on our responsorial Psalm:
< Blessed
the people the Lord has chosen to be his own.> 3x
Introducing
the Gospel
Say: Today’s Gospel reading comes
from the New Testament book of Matthew. (Matthew 28:18-20) Can
anyone tell me a word that means “rose from the dead”? <lead the children to the word ”resurrection”> In
this gospel, Jesus appeared to His eleven disciples on a mountain. Does
anyone remember why there were eleven disciples? <because Judas was no longer with the “twelve”> When Jesus
met his disciples, they still didn’t understand what had happened and what they
were supposed to do. Okay, lets listen.
...with Alleluia!! –
We sing while standing and
welcome the gospel!!
Good News
today, Yes good news, good news today, good news today, the news of Salavation.
Alle-luiaAlle,
Alle-luia, Alle- luia, A—lleluia x2
The leader reading the gospel, silently
says: “Cleanse our hearts and our lips almighty God, that we may worthily
proclaim your Holy Gospel”.
The Leader starts: The Lord be with You,
And with your Spirit.
A reading is from the Holy Gospel according to St. Matthew.
Glory to You, O Lord
Matthew 28:18-20
18-20 But Jesus came and spoke these words to them, “All power in Heaven
and on earth has been given to me. You, then, are to go and make disciples of
all the nations and baptise them in the name of the Father and of the Son and
of the Holy Spirit. Teach them to observe all that I have commanded you and,
remember, I am with you always, even to the end of the world.”
The Gospel of the Lord”
“Praise to you Lord
Jesus Christ”
==== 7:19 - 7:24 ====
(*) Tell your prepared reflecting story to motivate the children, but
according to the Gospel and children’s level of understanding like in the
suggestions below…
Gospel

What did Jesus tell his
friends? <to go out to all the world, to baptize everyone in the name of the
Father, the Son and the Holy Spirit, and that he will always be with them> Which persons did you hear about in this reading? <the
3 persons in 1 God>
Memory
Verse: Mathew 28:20
“…..I
am with you always, even to the end of the world....”
Let us stand up and we profess our
faith.
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:
The
third day he rose again from the dead:
He
ascended into heaven,
and
sits at the right hand of God the Father Almighty:
From
there He will come 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.
==== 7:24 - 7:26 ====
