Trying to live holy lives

After four weeks listening to John's gospel, this Sunday we go back to reading Mark's gospel Mark 7;1-8, 14-15, 21-23. Jesus tells the people that it is not just actions that make us a holy person, we need to try to link what we do, with what we say and think. 
Things to talk about this week
  • What does holiness mean? 
  • Who do you know who is holy?
  • Who reminds you of Jesus?

Looking at the Gospel reading
If you are helping a child to look up the reading you might want to look at the verses that aren't included for this weeks reading.

Dear Lord jesus, please help us to grow in holiness every day.
Help us to live like you and so make our home a holy place.  Amen
