Gospel
The Gospel
This week, teens reflected on Jesus’ parable of the vineyard. God generously entrusts us with life, faith, relationships, and gifts—not for selfish control, but so that we can bear the fruit of love, justice, and faithfulness. Families can help one another notice and use God’s gifts with gratitude.
Formation
Formation reflection
God has generously entrusted us with his love, his Church, and our daily lives; as disciples of Jesus, we respond by producing the fruit of faith, justice, virtue, and the Holy Spirit.
At home
Talk about it
- What is one gift God has entrusted to our family?
- Where is our family being invited to serve rather than seek credit?
- What good fruit do we want to grow in our home this week?
