Suggested Order for Faith Sharing
1. Begin with Prayer
You may light a candle and open a Bible. If possible you may start with a song. Together pray the opening prayer for Mass.Opening Prayer for Mass for the Fourth Sunday of Lent found in the Roman Missal
O God, who through your Word
reconcile the human race
to yourself in a wonderful way,
grant, we pray,
that with prompt devotion
and eager faith
the Christian people
may hasten
toward the solemn celebrations to come.
Through our Lord Jesus Christ, your Son,
who lives and reigns with you
in the unity of the Holy Spirit,
God, for ever and ever. AMEN2. Read the Gospel for Sunday Mass
