REFLECTION FOR YOUNG PEOPLE – by Lisa-Marie Calderone-Stewart
Saint Paul is so thankful for his friends who are his ‘partners’ in spreading the Gospel.
Who are your partners in life? Do you have a best friend or a group of friends that partner you and one another through life’s ups and downs? Describe such a friend. Are you thankful for this special friendship? How do you show your thankfulness?
Are you a thankful person in general? Do you write a lot of thank you notes? Do you always remember to say thank you when you are given something? Do you often consider all the things you have to be thankful for? How can you improve in this area?
What do you think it means to be a partner in spreading the Gospel? What would Gospel-spreading partners do?
