The gloves symbolize love. In this session, engage in reflection about the strength and universality of love.

 

Allow time for participants to explore why it may sound simple and desirable to love, or to act from love; it can actually be very hard. Emphasize compassion as the goal of every major religion. In addition, you will want to articulate ways the concept of universal love is connected to the love we feel for and show to our families and friends.

 

Take Home:

Talking together about “love” can help each member of the family realize ways they use and understand compassionate love as a quality of faith. You may like to each explore these questions:

  • When have you put another’s needs first?
  • What kind of sacrifices have you made, or have been made for you?
  • How have you been healed by love?
  • When is it hard to love, or to act with love, even though you know it might be especially right and rewarding to do?
