Kids Korner: Feed my sheep (May 4th)

Read John 21:1-19 with your family.

This is an add-on chapter that was not part of the original Gospel of John. We do not know when it was added, but it is important because it asks questions of Peter and the closest followers of Jesus: If you love Jesus, take care of the people Jesus cared about.

In this story Jesus tries to get Peter and the others to understand how important it is to look out for each other and make sure everyone has a safe life with enough food and good places to live.

Even though the questions are asked of Peter, we know those questions are also asked of us.

If we love Jesus, it is our responsibility to love and care for every other person.
