We call Sunday the Lord’s Day, but for many of us this, too, is a day in need of some cleansing and reorganizing. While many of us try to squeeze in Mass between many other activities each Sunday, we are called to make the celebration of the Eucharist the cornerstone around which other events should be planned. It is the most important activity in which we and our families will participate each week, so we should treat our Sunday schedule as such. We must also consider how we keep holy the rest of our Sundays, which can easily get cluttered with unnecessary work and activities that pull us away from our families and our prayers. Perhaps we can consider sanctifying our Sundays with reading Scripture or making a pilgrimage to a holy site to pray. In this way, we can turn our eyes toward the Lord and truly call it the Lord’s Day.
Adults: What in your life is distracting you from proper worship of the Lord?
Children: What keeps you from praying to Jesus as you should?
