Gospel Reflection: Mark 10:17–30, Sunday, October 13, 2024
In this week’s Gospel, a man with many possessions asks Jesus what he must do to gain eternal life. Discuss with your children: In this week’s Gospel, we hear what Jesus calls us to do with those things God has given us. A man asked Jesus what he must do to have life forever with God. What two things did Jesus tell the man to do? (to give up his possessions, to follow Jesus) The man knew that this would be hard, but Jesus told us that with God, all things are possible. Jesus calls us to follow him. He does not expect us to give up everything we have, but he does want us to make a change. He wants us to use what we have to serve God’s kingdom, not to keep what we have to ourselves by not sharing. What are some of your favorite things? What are some ways we can use what we have to serve God’s kingdom? (ie. donating old clothes and toys; sharing our toys and games when we play with others; and using our talents, such as our sense of humor or musical gifts, to help others feel happy.)
Pope Francis:
The Pope’s Worldwide Prayer Network is a pontifical work with the mission of mobilizing Catholics through prayer and action, in the face of the challenges confronting humanity and the mission of the Church. The prayer intention for October is: For a Shared Mission. In his prayer intention, Pope Francis says, “We pray that the Church continue to sustain in all ways a Synodal lifestyle, as a sign of co-responsibility, promoting the participation, the communion and the mission shared among priests, religious and lay people.” (Pope Francis).
