FOR THE RIDE HOME AND INTO THE WEEK! Our Sunday liturgy does not end when Mass ends, rather it con nues into the week. The ques ons posed here, help us to live the Gospel message all week long, to go in peace to love and serve the Lord. So as we journey the week let us reflect on these ques ons to help us answer God’s call to holiness and discipleship.
Love of Enemies Adults: What is the point of “turning the other cheek”
in an argument, and why is it so hard to do? Children: Who are the people you find it most difficult to
forgive?
