Son of God and Son of Man!
Truly I’d love Thee, Truly I’d serve Thee,
Light of my soul, my Joy, my Crown.”

Good Shepherd Sunday

Continuing our Good Shepherd party today.
Almighty God, merciful Father, since You have wakened from death the Shepherd of your sheep, grant us Your Holy Spirit that when we hear the voice of our Shepherd we may know Him who calls us each by name and follow where He leads.

“Now Thomas (also known as Didymus), one of the Twelve, was not with the disciples when Jesus came.So the other disciples told him, “We have seen the Lord!”But he said to them, “Unless I see the nail marks in his hands and put my finger where the nails were, and put my hand into his side, I will not believe.” John 20:24-25
“A week later his disciples were in the house again, and Thomas was with them. Though the doors were locked, Jesus came and stood among them and said, “Peace be with you!” Then he said to Thomas, “Put your finger here; see my hands. Reach out your hand and put it into my side. Stop doubting and believe.” John 20:26-27
Here’s a craft I came up with quickly during the first week of Easter. Thankfully the girls are VERY easy to please. Some scissors and glitter and they are happy! I was impressed with how well Lily cutting skills have improved over this year. Clara is more into “mosaics” if you know what I mean…
And a hymn we enjoyed during that week:
