Scripture: Genesis 1:27, Ephesians 2:10, Romans 8:28
Main Ideas:
God created us for a purpose, which is to be holy. Being holy is about authentically living as the person God created us uniquely to be.
When we become holy, we become a “saint.” Sainthood is a call for every person, not just a few.
On our own, we cannot become holy because we lack grace. Only through God’s love and divine favor can we become who God made us to be.

Solidarity
Engage Your Family
WATCH the video below about St. Oscar Romero, the people’s patron saint of El Salvador. (canonized in 2018)
DISCUSS: How did St. Romero’s life impact others? How did he accompany people and how did that change his perspective? How did he try to be a voice for those living in poverty and for those that were suffering? How can you as an individual or as a family be a voice for those in your community and around the world who are living in poverty or who are suffering?
CONSIDER: Who do you know that needs help? What can you do to accompany them?
DECIDE: How you can put into action the ideas you shared? To begin with, develop relationships with those who are suffering, listen to them, pray, and respond by walking with them.
