Choose one of the following activities as a way to further reflect on the Sunday readings:

• God loves, forgives and welcomes everyone. Think about ways that your family can love, forgive and welcome others. On a sheet of paper create three columns with the following headings: Love, Forgiveness and Welcome. Brainstorm with your family ways you can reach out to others. Write the responses under the appropriate headings. Post the paper in a prominent place in your home.
• Make a list of newcomers to your community. Choose one family and think of a way you can welcome them.
• Jesus extends God’s love to all. Find out about a group that works for social justice in your community. Invite someone from the group to explain the group’s activities to your family. Decide if there is a way you can help.
• Think of a family whose national or ethnic heritage is different from yours. Talk with them about their family customs and celebrations.
