QUESTION OF THE WEEK
Fourteenth Sunday in Ordinary Time
July 6, 2008
Read! Reflect! Respond!

Read again the Gospel we listened to today.

THEME: Jesus refreshes & strengthens us for ministry.

GOSPEL: Matthew 11:25-30
At that time Jesus exclaimed:“I give praise to you, Father, Lord of
heaven and earth, for although you have hidden these things from the wise and the learned, you have revealed them to little ones. Yes, Father, such has been your gracious will. All things have been handed over to me by my Father. No one knows the Son except the Father, and no one knows the Father except the Son and anyone to whom the Son wishes to reveal him.”
“Come to me, all you who labor and are burdened, and I will give you rest.
Take my yoke upon you and learn from me, for I am meek and humble of heart; and you will find rest for yourselves. For my yoke is easy, and my burden light.”

Reflect on the words of this reading.

Respond by sharing your response to the question with others!
What is Jesus calling me to this week?

Question for Children: When you are generous, honest, and loving, how do you know it is Jesus who helps you do that?

Question for Youth: Jesus invites us to bring him our burdens and promises us that he will give us rest. How do you rely on Jesus during times of trouble? When has Jesus helped you?

Question for Adults: As you go about your daily life, dying in love for others, how do you experience Christ giving you consolation and peace?

Why do this?
We all have stories of faith to share and we can be enriched by one another
from the youngest to the oldest among us.
