Readings and Questions for
Faith Sharing
Reading I:
Sirach 3: 17-18, 20, 28-29
Conduct your
affairs with humility.
Reading II:
Hebrews 12: 18-19, 22-24a
You have drawn
near to the city of the living God.
Gospel:
Luke 14: 1, 7-14
Whoever exalts
self shall be humbled and whoever humbles self will be exalted.
Theme:
Give as God gives - in humility and love.
Question for Adults:
Who are the
people living near you that you would find it most difficult to
invite to a meal in your home? Or to invite to be part of your life?
Question for Youth:
God asks us to do
for others without hope of repayment. This past week, what did you
do for someone else for which you won't be repaid? Who are the
people most in need of your generosity?
Question for Children:
Jesus tells us
that we should treat everyone as a guest. Who do you tend to shun or
not be nice to?
Ideas for Using the Faith Sharing Question:
- Do you keep a spiritual journal? Use the faith sharing
question for personal reflection.
- Try your hand at writing faith sharing questions for your
own family.
- Families can use the faith sharing question for their
evening prayers.
- Looking for an opening prayer for a meeting at church? Use
the faith sharing question!
- Emmaus groups can use the question for an opening prayer.
- Families can read the Gospel passage and discuss the faith
sharing question at mealtime.
- These are not meant to be "yes" or "no" questions, but ones
that draw the users deeper into the Gospel.
- Remember: the faith sharing question asks for a personal
response, not a theological discourse.
- Make faith sharing a way of life. The faith sharing
question helps us to see Christ in our world every day.
- Don't forget the faith sharing question for children!
