LIVING THE LESSON

Whatever You Do for One of
the Least of These Brothers
(completed as a family)
Living the Lesson: Matthew 25:35 “Whatever you do for one of the least of these brothers….”
Christ tells in in Matthew 25:35-40, “For I was hungry and you gave me something to eat, I was thirsty and you gave me something to drink, I was a stranger and you invited me in, I needed clothes and you clothed me, I was sick and you looked after me, I was in prison and you came to visit me.’ “Then the righteous will answer him, ‘Lord, when did we see you hungry and feed you, or thirsty and give you something to drink? When did we see you a stranger and invite you in, or needing clothes and clothe you? When did we see you sick or in prison and go to visit you?’ “The King will reply, ‘Truly I tell you, whatever you did for one of the least of these brothers and sisters of mine, you did for me.’
Recently, we have been learning about the plight of the homeless. We’ve worked on the Homelessness is One Paycheck Away project, had Keith Cieplicki from Brady Faith Center’s Jail Ministry come speak at our Winter Break Session, and will be having Dr. David Lehmann from Housecalls for the Homeless speak at our Sunday Sunday. How are ways that your family can serve and support those that are homeless and/or incredibly impoverished and desperate and for many, have nowhere to turn? We are now in Lent and the three pillars of Lent are Prayer, Fasting and Almsgiving. This Lent, how can you pray, fast and give alms for the homeless and suffering? Let me know what your family does! This is due by the end of Lent; April 17. Please send pictures to me at cmackey@syrdio.org and remember that grades 1-5 need to spend at least two hours on this and grades 6-10 need to spend at least 2.5 hours to receive the credit hours for this lesson.
“Yours may be the only face of Christ they see…..”
