Conversation Due November 27, 2020
Candidates, write a simple summary to submit to Jennifer Heitkamper using the conversation starter below.
Prayer
We sometimes speak of four ACTS of prayer.
A Adoration or love               We express our love for God.
C Contrition or sorrow           We express sorrow for our sins and ask forgiveness.
T Thanksgiving                       We thank God for his many blessings.
S Supplication or request       We ask for his help and guidance.
 
A healthy prayer life includes all of these approaches. Examine your prayer life. What approach do you use most often? Least often? Reflect back this past week, talk about the prayers you use.
 
Knowing My Faith

• What does it mean to give witness of your Christian faith to those of your own age? How have your parents helped you? How has your sponsor helped you? How have other candidates helped you?
• Baptism is the sacrament by which you were incorporated into Christ and became a member of the Church. Together, talk about the responsibility of a sponsor that you both consider most important.

 
Christian Service

• Find one incident in the Gospels that shows Jesus helping others. What do you learn about him in the incident? How can you imitate him in a similar way?
• Does your Family or sponsor belong to any parish organization or committee? Explain.

Record the following:

• Write the feast day of the church (your home parish).
• What new things have you learned about your parish patron saint?
