  • Kids Korner: Jesus heals (June 19th)

    Read Luke 8:26-39 with your family. Sometimes when we read the stories in the Bible, they are very confusing and we want to ask more questions. Often those questions can be answered if we remember that the stories in the Bible happened in another time and place. In today’s story, the ‘demon’ identified itself as…

      Coming Of The Holy Spirit John 16 12 I have much more to say to you, but right now it would be more than you could understand. 13  The Spirit shows what is true and will come and guide you into the full truth. The Spirit doesn’t speak on his own. He will tell you only what…

  • Kids Korner: Jesus talks about the Holy Spirit (June 12th)

    Read John 16:12-19 with your family. When Jesus left, he promised that the Holy Spirit would come to the people.

  • Kids Korner: The Holy Spirit (June 5th)

    Read Acts 2:1-21 with your family.

It was an important time and the…

  • Kids Korner: Jesus Leaves (May 29th)

    Read Luke 24:44-53 with your family. Remember back to Good Friday, how sad everyone was that Jesus had died? Jesus came back Easter morning and everyone was shocked.

  • Sunday Reflection, Easter VI – May 22, 2022

      Promise of the Holy Spirit 23 Jesus replied: If anyone loves me, they will obey me. Then my Father will love them, and we will come to them and live in them. 24 But anyone who doesn’t love me, won’t obey me. What they have heard me say doesn’t really come from me, but from the Father…

  • Kids Korner: A New Kind of Peace (May 22nd)

    Read John 14:23-29 with your family. We experience God in three relationships: one with God as a parent or creator, one with God in human form as Jesus, and one with God as the Holy Spirit flowing around us and into our hearts. Jesus was trying to explain that to his followers that long ago…
