Come, Holy Spirit, fill the hearts of your faithful

And kindle in them the fire of your love.
Send forth your Spirit and they shall be created.

DAY 3 – OUR RESPONSE TO GOD’S MESSAGE
Before we begin this form time prayer, let’s take a moment to light our candle and spend some time in silence thinking about all the things that are on our hearts and minds today…
We begin this form time prayer with the sign of the cross. In the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit. Amen
Let’s remind ourselves of our scripture:
‘Go therefore and make disciples of all nations, baptising them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, teaching them to observe all that I have commanded you. And behold, I am with you always, to the end of the age.’
Matthew 28:19-20
Today we’re going to spend a few minutes thinking about what it means to be a missionary disciple. A missionary disciple is someone who follows Jesus and shares his love through the way they live, speak, and act.
We’re going to use a simple method called See, Judge, Act.
SEE
Think about our school, our community, or the wider world.
What is one challenge that young people face today?
It might be:
- Loneliness
- Anxiety
- Bullying
- Pressure from social media
- Exclusion
- Lack of hope
- Poverty or injustice
Take a few seconds to think quietly.
(Pause)
Now turn to the person next to you and discuss:
What challenge do you think affects young people most today, and why?
JUDGE
As Christians, we try to see situations through the eyes of Jesus.
Think about the challenge you discussed.
Ask yourselves:
- What would Jesus say about this?
- How would Jesus respond?
- What values from the Gospel could help?
Perhaps Jesus would remind people that everyone has dignity, that no one should be left out, and that we are called to love our neighbour.
Discuss with your partner:
What do you think Jesus would say or do in response to this challenge?
ACT
Being a missionary disciple means taking action.
Think of one small thing you could do today or this week that reflects what Jesus would do.
For example:
- Include someone who is often left out.
- Speak kindly to someone.
- Check in on a friend.
- Stand up against unkindness.
- Pray for someone who is struggling.
Take 30 seconds to decide on one action.
(Pause)
Keep that action in mind and try to carry it out this week.
In the Response section, write examples of the things you have been thinking about.
Let us pray together…
Loving God,
Amen
Help us to see the needs of others,
to judge situations with wisdom and compassion, and to act with courage and kindness. May we be missionary disciples who bring your love to our school and community.
We end this form time prayer with the sign of the cross. In the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit. Amen.
DAY 4 – OUR MISSION
Before we begin this form time prayer, let’s take a moment to light our candle and spend some time in silence thinking about all the things that are on our hearts and minds today…
We begin this form time prayer with the sign of the cross. In the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit. Amen
Thinking about all that we have discussed about the word of the week and our scripture this week, it is time to set our MISSION. The mission should be our way of trying to work as individuals or as a community (whichever you choose), so that we can share the message from this week with the wider community.
‘Go therefore and make disciples of all nations, baptising them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, teaching them to observe all that I have commanded you. And behold, I am with you always, to the end of the age.’
Matthew 28:19-20
Discuss in your form what mission you want to set for yourselves on the theme of MISSIONARY DISCIPLESHIP and then write it on the form time prayer sheet.
Example
Our mission for the theme of MISSIONARY DISCIPLESHIP is to include a person who may be left out.
As form time prayer comes to an end, we pray for help to complete our mission. With all this in mind, we pray together…
Glory be to the Father
Amen
and to the Son
and to the Holy Spirit,
as it was in the beginning
is now, and ever shall be
world without end.
We end this form time prayer with the sign of the cross. In the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit. Amen
DAY 5 – THE CELEBRATION
Before we begin this form time prayer, let’s take a moment to light our candle and spend some time in silence thinking about all the things that are on our hearts and minds today…
Using everything we have added to our sheet this week, we are now going to take part in our Celebration of the Word, altogether, to end this week.
We begin this Celebration of the Word with the sign of the cross. In the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit. Amen
