1 READ & REFLECT! Listen & Learn with Jesus, the Word!
Jesus said to Nicodemus (who was a teacher of the law), “No one has gone up
into heaven except the one who came down from heaven – that is, the Son of
Man. God loved the world so much that he gave his only Son, so that everyone
who believes in him may have everlasting life. God did not send his Son into the
world to condemn the world; he sent him to save the world.”

“It is in giving that we receive.

SELF-GIVING
St Francis of Assisi
Ask your child what ‘self-giving’ means to them. Who
are the most self-giving people that they know? In what
ways are those people self-giving? Ask your child if they
can remember the last time when they shared their sweets,
their time, their toys, or gave something up to help make
someone else happy. It may help your child if you can talk
about someone you know to be self-giving, and say why.

How can we be self-giving, even in little ways, at home,
at school or in the community? Perhaps we can: offer
to help out at school or around the house before we’re
asked; be polite and let others go first; take time to offer
praise where we can; be first to reach out and make
friends again after an argument; give some of our leisure
time to be with God in prayer; pray for someone in need.
Dear Lord Jesus, thank you for giving your life for us, and for all the kind
people in our community who show us your way of love and self-giving
self-giving.. Amen.

Jesus said to Nicodemus, “God _ _ _ _ _ the
_ _ _ _ _ so much that he _ _ _ _ his only _ _ _ .”
We prove our love by our actions. It’s our self-giving
which helps to make the world a much better place. To
truly follow Jesus we must be kind and self-giving.
