| To Parents and Catechists: This experience provides the opportunity to cast aside negative actions before accepting Jesus' invitation to follow him. |
We Follow Jesus
Listen to God's Word
Reader: Jesus was walking along a shore. He saw Peter and Andrew catching fish with a net. Jesus said to them, "Come follow me." At once, they left their nets and went with Jesus. From Matthew 4:18-20
Sing: (To the tune of "If You're Happy")
Oh, now, Jesus wants us all to follow him.
Oh, now, Jesus wants us all to follow him.
If we follow him forever, then we'll always be together.
Oh, now, Jeus wants us all to follow him.
Pray Together
Leader: Jesus, we want to follow you. We will leave behind our net of unloving ways...
Cross out the word "not" in the picture of the net on the right.
Listen to God's Word
Reader: Jesus says, "If you love one another, then everyone will know that you are my followers." From John 13:35
Sing: (To the tune of "If You're Happy")
Oh, the followers of Jesus are all friends.
Oh, the followers of Jesus are all friends.
If we follow him forever, then we'll always be together.
Oh, the followers of Jesus are all friends.
My Prayer Goes On
Pray these words every day .
