24 – 25 Theme: Love One Another
John 15:12-17 This is my commandment: love one another, as I have loved you. No one can have greater love than to lay down his life for his friends. You are my friends, if you do what I command you. I shall no longer call you servants, because a servant does not know the master’s business; I call you friends, because I have made known to you everything that I learnt from my Father. You did not choose me, no, I chose you; and I commissioned you to go out and bear fruit, fruit that will last; so that the Father will give you anything you ask him in my name. My command to you is to love one another.
Call and Response: We will Love one another, as He has loved us.
“Whenever we encounter another person in love, we learn something new about God.” Pope Francis, Evangelii Gaudium
