How Can I Help? Jesus & Peter had a conversation that should inspire everyone. (John 21:15-18) Jesus asks Peter three times if he loved Him. Each time Peter replied yes, Jesus' reply was as follows: "Feed my lambs", "Tend my sheep." After these directives, Jesus then said, "Follow Me." We are instructed to feed and tend to others, then we can follow Jesus. Feeding the Children of God is more than offering support. It is leading by example and mentoring them, or commonly called, "Walking the walk, Feed the lambs by teaching them the Word of God (Choir and Lector). Tend the sheep by caring for the flocks needs (Sacristan, Greeter, and Usher, Feed the sheep by feeding the flock the Body and Blood of Christ (Server and Eucharistic ministries). There are other ministries that assist with these directives. (Art and Environment) funeral and wedding ministries, and inspiring and supporting a person to join the religious life). When the flock is fed and its needs are met, it is stronger and will grow in knowledge and numbers. It will therefore make it easier to follow its leadership. If you are able, please consider joining a ministry, then follow as Jesus has instructed all of us today.
