Session 2: Called to Trust God Like the Saints

God loves us and takes care of us. We don’t have to worry, but instead we must rely on Him. 

We are called to be Saints- that means- we are called to love God above all things. 

All our actions and decisions should reflect that love. It also means that you share that 

love with everyone and you share the Good News of Jesus. 

Discussion Questions: 

What does trusting God mean? 

We are coming up on a holiday called All Saints Day. On that day Catholics remember 

the heroes of our church, the Saints, who loved God and lived a holy life, by always trying to

obey God. A holy life is a life that teaches others what God’s love is like.  

Let's learn more about what it means to be a Saint!

Jesus’ Mother Mary is the greatest Saint, because her trust in God was perfect.

She is called the Mother of God because she is Jesus’s mother. Let's learn more about how 

God wants us to trust Him and how Mary trusted God perfectly by listening to scripture 

readings in the Bible.  Play the video for some help from Mrs. Christie in the OLS Faith Formation 

Office.
