1 READ & REFLECT! Listen & Learn with Jesus, the Word!
Some people were talking about the beautiful stones used to build the temple and about the gifts
that had been placed in the temple. Jesus said, “The time will come when not a single stone will
be left on another: they will all be knocked down.” The disciples asked Jesus when this would
happen and he replied, “Before the world ends, many things will happen. People will appear and
pretend to be me saying, ‘I am the Christ and now is the time!’ But do not believe or follow them.
And when you hear about wars and earthquakes, do not be afraid; just stay faithful to me.”

“Be faithful in small things because it is in them that
FAITHFULNESS
your strength lies.”
St Teresa of Calcutta (Mother Teresa)
Ask your child what the word ‘faithful’ means to them.
To be faithful is to be true to someone or something.
Does your child know someone who is a faithful friend
– someone who keeps their promises? What is it like
to be in the company of a faithful person? It may help
your child if you can talk about a person you know to
be a faithful friend, and say why.
Dear Lord Jesus, thank you for being our faithful friend. Please help
us to keep growing in faithfulness to you and to one another. Amen.

How can we grow in faithfulness to God and to each other?
Perhaps we can: spend time with God and listen to him
through daily prayer; follow the teachings of Jesus by always
trying to love our neighbour as ourselves; remember to put
others’ needs before our own needs; make sure that if we
tell someone [or we tell God] that we will do something,
we do it!

Jesus said, “Do _ _ _ be _ _ _ _ _ _;
just stay _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ to _ _.”
To be a faithful person is to be loyal and to keep
our promises. We can ask God to help us to grow
in faithfulness – it really is a gift worth asking for.
