Chapter 15: The Holy Spirit


 

This week your child learned about God the Holy Spirit, the third Person of the Blessed Trinity. The Holy Spirit is the Helper Jesus promised to send His disciples. After the death of Jesus, the disciples were filled with doubt, fear, and regret. But when the Holy Spirit came upon them on Pentecost, they were filled with confidence and courage to proclaim openly and fearlessly their faith in Jesus Christ. The Holy Spirit helps us every day to live and witness to our faith in Jesus Christ.

A Picture Story

Talk with your child about times when he or she might need the help of the Holy Spirit. Invite your child to draw one of these times. Have your child tell about the drawing. Encourage your child to ask the Holy Spirit for help in times like these.

A Prayer to the Holy Spirit

Come, Holy Spirit, fill the hearts of Your faithful and enkindle in them the fire of Your love.
