The Wednesday Word- God's Love

Dear Parents and Carers,

In this Sunday’s Gospel we have a witty dialogue

between Jesus and the Samaritan woman drawing water

at the well, where each seems to be teasing the other.

Water is a sign of life. The ‘living water’ is the sign of

everything that Jesus offers us to satisfy our need of

God’s love and guidance. With its serious message,

this Sunday’s Gospel is a lovely example of Jesus’

willingness to engage with people just as they are –

and that includes us too!

God has no favourites; we are all loved equally by

God. The season of Lent presents a great opportunity

for everyone to enter afresh into the living and

nourishing water of God’s love which surpasses any

food or drink.

Enjoy hearing your child’s thoughts about this

Sunday’s Gospel and this Wednesday’s words,

which are GOD’S LOVE.
