Today's Sunday School lesson was about the Lord's Prayer (Luke 11:1-13). The children learned that our heavenly Father invites us to pray and promises to hear our prayer for the sake of His Son, Jesus. What things have you prayed for? How has God answered your prayers?

Review what the catechism has to say about the Lord's Prayer.

Today's Sunday School lesson was about Jesus's sending the 72 to go and tell others about Jesus. God chose the 72 to serve Him in a special task (Luke 10:1-24). God places us in various callings, giving us opportunities to serve Him and share our faith with others.

As a family, talk about the various callings (vocations) each of you have and discuss the opportunities God gives you in these roles to share your faith. Who in your life needs to hear about the Savior?

Jesus calls Himself our shepherd (John 10:22-30).  In Sunday School today, the children learned how we are all like sheep who have gone astray.

As a family, talk about this Good Shepherd Jesus, who rescues, gathers, and cares for us through His Word and Sacraments.  In what ways has He rescued you?  Where can we find our Shepherd? ((In His Word and Sacraments.)  Review the blessings of Baptism and the Lord.s Supper in the catechism.

Today in Sunday School, the children learned how Jesus revealed Himself to the disciples after Easter in another miraculous catch of fish (John 21:1-14).

As a family, talk about how Jesus reveals Himself to us in the means of grace, calling us to be disciples and giving us Easter joy. Especially discuss the blessings of Baptism and how through water and God's Word each of us puts on Christ. What does that mean for your lives now and in eternity.

Today in Sunday School, the children learned that we, like Thomas, doubt what we cannot see (John 20:19-31). Through His Spirit, God gives us eyes of faith that we might see Jesus in Word and Sacrament and believe in Him.

Discuss with your family times when it was hard to trust and believe in the promises of God.  Talk about faith and where it comes from (the Holy Spirit). In your catechism review, study the Third Article of the Apostles' Creed and its explantion.
