Lord’s Day.
Keep in mind the five reasons why you like soccer day.
We will see if we could win on the Lord’s Day, too!
God loves us so much that He asks:
“Come, spend this special day with me!
Sometimes it is not easy for us to spend a day with Him, go to
church, to Mass.
When you go to Mass, what is the hardest for you?
Sometimes, we really don’t know what is going on,
 and we are bored, but God in not boring!
He doesn’t want us to be bored.

WHY WE GET BORED IN CHURCH?
1. How do we prepare for the day of the
Lord?
2. Do we prepare 2 or 3 times a week
for the great Day of the Lord?
I don’t think we do,
and this is why we may be bored when we go to
church.
We are not preparing for the day!
Remember what we like about soccer?
We like soccer.
Do you like God?
 I think you do more than “like” Him, YOU LOVE
HIM!

LOVE HIM & UNDERSTANDING
LOVE GOD
REST
1. WE LOVE GOD
2. UNDERSTANDING.
I am really not sure, we understand the Lord’s Day.
1. Do you know why gave it to us?
2. Do you know what that day is about— as well as you
know what soccer is about?
It is the day of understanding that God gave us a
DAY OF REST
1. Rest?! What does it mean?
2. Do you have to lie in bed all day?
3. Its sounds boring, isn’t it?
But I told you that God is not boring.
Then why did he ask us to rest?

LOVE GOD
REST
We rest our bodies… and rest our
hearts.
Rest our minds.
From what? From hurts!
Many things happen during the week that
may hurts us .
Can you think of some hurts?
Hurt make us sad.
God is inviting us: “Come! Bring your
hurt to Me! If you rest that hurt, you
will remember that I love you”

LOVE GOD
REST
SIN
 Some times we have Sins
 We make mistakes.
1. What is the Lord saying to all of
us?
“Come, bring that sin here. Bring
that mistake here an rest it in Me.
And when you rest it, you will
remember that I forgive, that I am a
forgiving Father.”

REST SIN
 Sometimes we worry.
 What do we worry about?
a) Our Mom and Dad fight sometimes; that worries
us.
b) Our older brothers and sisters are getting into
trouble.
c) Maybe Grandma is dying.

worry with Me, and I will comfort you.”

are happy to rest with Him, and
remember how good He is.

COMMUNITY WORSHIP
What else did we say about soccer? Others!
We didn’t just go to the game by ourselves;
we had teammates, family, friends.
God is saying:
 “I want my family around; I want them to know each
other, to call each other by name.”
He knows that it is good for us to be
together and hear His good news,
 “I love you! My Son want to come to you and be part
of your life!”

COMMUNITY WORSHIP
1. What do we call these people around us in
church? We call them a COMMUNITY.
2. Why do we come together? TO WORSHIP
Now we are beginning to UNDERSTAND why we
come to church on Sundays.
By being there, we are saying to each other,
“I believe in God… I believe in Jesus Christ… I believe the Holy
Spirit who is the love of God”
We have come to worship God with and through
Jesus Christ.
We are not worshiping soccer or money! We have decided to
worship God.

THE 3RD COMMANDMENT
When we are doing this, we are doing
what God has asked us.
God deserves that we show our love for
Him in this way.
This is the 3rd Commandment: “To honor
the Day of the Lord.”

TAKE PART In Soccer, we like to take part.
1. When we go to church, do we just watch and not
take part in the Mass?
Sometimes, we may just be spectators…
and that is why we are bored.
But we can and should we ask TAKE PART.
When the Priest says, “The Lord be with you,” what
do you do?
1. Do you watch other people?
2. or do you respond to the Father: “And also with you”?
When he says, “Let us pray,” he asks us to come
and pray,
1. do you pray?
2. Or do you just watch other people pray?
Maybe that is why we are bored.

TAKE PART
When the Father asks us to come, and
present the gifts,
 Do we volunteer to present the gifts?
Sometimes, we can!—
When the Priest asks us to lift up our
hearts, he says, “lift up our hearts!”
 Do you lift up your hearts?
We can take part!
We can talk to the Lord.
And when we talk to Him, we are TAKING
PART.

WE ALL WIN
In soccer we try to win.
Who will WIN on the Lord’s Day?
The Lord wins:
A. He wins our love.
B. He wins our respect.
C. We are winners, too, when we love and respect God and
worship Him.
At the end of Mass, the Priest say, “Go to love and
serve the Lord and one another.”
