Praying Together With Children - 2025

13 JUNE 2025 FRIDAY Saint Anthony of Padua We Gather... Today we celebrate Saint Anthony of Padua, an inspired and much-loved preacher. Let us pray for all who speak in the name of Jesus. (pause) O God, you are the word of life. Give us the right words to say to take your kindness to all we meet. Through Christ our Lord. Amen. We Listen... A Reading from the Holy Gospel according to John (16:12-15) Jesus said to his disciples: "I have much more to say to you, but right now it would be more than you could understand. The Spirit shows what is true and will come and guide you into the full truth. The Spirit does not speak on his own. He will tell you only what he has heard from me, and he will let you know what is going to happen. The Spirit will bring glory to me by taking my message and telling it to you. Everything that the Father has is mine. That is why I have said that the Spirit takes my message and tells it to you." The Gospel of the Lord. Praise to you, Lord Jesus Christ. We Reflect... What exactly is the Holy Trinity? We don’t actually hear the word mentioned in the Bible, but the idea of God as Father, Son and Holy Spirit is an important part of our Catholic beliefs. Watch this video to understand more about the Holy Trinity. We Go Forth... May the joy of the Spirit fill our lives. Amen. In the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Spirit. Amen. 98
