We Pray to Jesus, Our Good Shepherd

Listen to God's Word
We are God's people. We are God's flock. From Psalm 100:3

A Prayerful Drama

Narrator: Jesus told us the following story.
Sheep: (Move as if grazing on hillside.)
Hired Hand: "I don't own these sheep. I don't care what happens to them."
Wolf: (Very sneakily, approach the sheep.)
Sheep: (Move as if frightened, huddling near hired hand.)
Hired Hand: "Oh no! Is that a wolf I see? I'm not staying here. If I worry about these sheep, I won't be able to escape."
Wolf: (Move mouth as if to snatch one of the sheep.)
Sheep: (Run in every direction.)
Narrator: Suddenly the sheep stop and hear someone call to them. Jesus tells the sheep, "Don't worry. I will save you."

Listen to God's Word
Jesus says, "I am the good shepherd. I know my sheep and they know me. I am willing to die for them. They will listen to my voice, and they will become one flock with one shepherd." From John 10:14-16

My Prayer Goes On
Jesus, my Good Shepherd, You guide me along right paths, as you have promised. I will not be afraid, for you are with me. You protect me with your shepherd's rod and staff. From Psalm 23:1, 3-5
