Sharing the Gospel With Children

When you are tired and upset, go to God. Talk things over with him. Tell him the whole story. God is a good listener. He has a gentle heart. He will say to you, "I love you. I forgive you." Then snuggle up with your favorite blanket and take a nap. When you wake up, you will feel much better. Then you will share your love by saying, "May I help you?"

Prayer
Lord Jesus, fill me with love for my family, friends, and neighbors.

Something to Draw
Draw God holding you on his lap while sitting in your favorite rocking chair.

Mission for the Week
I will tell God when I am tired and upset. He will calm me.
Monday, July 6
St. Maria Goretti

St. Maria Goretti's story is remarkable. Not only is she the youngest canonized saint in the Church, but her ability to forgive is truly astonishing!
Maria is the patron saint of purity and of those who have been physically violated.
At the age of eleven, she was laid to rest one day after being stabbed repeatedly for refusing a young man who was trying to steal her virtue. On her death bed, she forgave the young man.
