A Family Together: Children of God Activity Page
When we are baptized, we become children of God. As we grow,
we learn more and more about what it means to be a child of
God. We learn to think like a child of God, to speak like a child
of God, and to act like a child of God.
Discover some of the ways we behave as children of God. Above
each number, place its corresponding letter. When you finish,
on the lines below, write some other ways you show you are a
child of God.

Today’s prayer service is based on two key passages of Evangelii gaudium. It also includes private reflection and shared prayer.
