1 READ & REFLECT! Listen & Learn with Jesus, the Word!
Jesus said to his friends, the disciples, “If you love me you will keep my commandments.
I will pray to the Father and he will give you a Helper (the Holy Spirit) to be with you
forever. I will not leave you alone. I will come back to you. I am going back to the
Father now, but you will see me because I am alive. And because I live, you will live
too. Anyone who loves me keeps my commandments. And those who love me will be

loved by my Father. I will love them, and they will see me as I truly am.”
Why did Jesus say he would pray to the Father?

“Happy the person whose words come
HELPER
from the Holy Spirit.”
St Anthony of Padua
Ask your child who has helped them recently. What did that person
do that was such a help to your child? You may want to share an
experience of being helped by your children, other people, or directly
by the Holy Spirit, and describe the difference that this help made to
your life. Then each of you talk about an occasion when you went out
of your way to help someone. What does your child know about the
Holy Spirit (the third Person of the Holy Trinity), our helper?

We can ask the Holy Spirit to guide and help us to do and say the right
thing. As a family, discuss and choose special ways in which you can be
helpful to each other in this coming week. Perhaps you can: make your
bed and keep your room tidy; use kind words; set the table and help
each other with the dishes. Are there any vulnerable or lonely people
in your community who may especially need your help right now? What
could you do to help?
Dear Lord Jesus, please send your Holy Spirit into our lives to be our helper
and to guide us, so that we can be a great help to those around us. Amen.

When we love Jesus, we listen to him and try to live the
way he asks us to. We do not have to do it by ourselves
though. Jesus sends us the Holy Spirit, our helper, to help
us to choose the right way to live.
