Preparation for Sunday mass: John 10:27-30
We present here the text that will be read at Sunday mass, the 4th Sunday of Easter, and we formulate some questions that might help us prepare to hear the reading.
27 My sheep hear my voice. I know them, and they follow me. 28 I give them eternal life, and they will never perish. No one will snatch them out of my hand. 29 What my Father has given me is greater than all else, and no one can snatch it out of the Father's hand. 30 The Father and I are one."
For adults:
- What does it imply that Jesus refers to us as his sheep?
- What does it imply that no one will be able to snatch us out of his hand?
- What does the unity of the Father and Jesus mean in our lives?
For children:
- Have you ever seen a flock of sheep walking behind a shepherd? Imagine that you are one of those sheep!
- Who might want to snatch away the sheep from the shepherd? What are the dangers that sheep might face?
- What kind of shepherd will always protect his sheep and never be afraid?
