Dear Parents and Carers,
Wednesday 7th May 2025
This Sunday is traditionally known as ‘Good Shepherd
Sunday’. The Gospel reminds us that Jesus is the Good
Shepherd and that, if we listen to him, we can rely on
him to guide our lives in the right direction.
Jesus is the patient shepherd who never gives up on
us. He came so that we could experience the fullness
of life here, and to lead us into the joys
of eternal life.
Sheep are so unpredictable and undependable. They
are easily startled and often run in the wrong direction,
appearing constantly to change their mind. Sometimes
we too can head in the wrong direction and we need
help to keep our lives on the right path.
Enjoy a special time together this evening, hearing
your child’s thoughts about this Sunday’s Gospel
and this Wednesday’s word, which is LIFE.

Jesus said, “The sheep that
belong to me listen to my
voice; I know them and they
follow me. I give them eternal
life; they will never be lost and
no one will ever steal them from me. The
Father who gave them to me is greater
than anyone, and no one can steal from
the Father. The Father and I are one.”
Adapted from John 10:27-30

Jesus wants us to share in his life because he loves us so much.
He offers us eternal life and that’s a gift which we can begin to receive
today. When we listen to Jesus and follow him we can already begin
to experience eternal life, to live in God’s love, here and now!
