Sunday's Gospel tells about the faith of some of Jesus' friends and the result of that faith - Lazarus being raised from death.  The Gospel calls us to believe that Jesus can do more than raise us back to life as he did Lazarus.  it calls us to believe that we will share God's life forever.

Watch the video below and discuss the questions as a family.
Why did Jesus' disciples not want him to go to Judea to see Lazarus? (Going back to last week's Gospel, they did not think Jesus could be the Christ because he was performing miracles on the Sabbath) *
Who came to Jesus first when he arrived?  Second?  What did they say to him?  (Martha arrived first, Mary came second when word was sent for her to come see Jesus.  They both told Jesus that had he been there their brother wouldn't have died.) *
What did Jesus say to Martha when she told him she knew Lazarus would rise at the resurrection?  ("I am the resurrection and the life, whoever believes in me, even if he dies, will live, and everyone who lives and believes in me will never die.")  *
Why was it important for Jesus to talk to God out loud when he went to Lazarus' tomb?  (He did it so that those that had gathered around could know that Jesus was talking to God and that they could come to believe that God sent him.) *
This week's Eucharistic Quote and Reflection tell us not to be jealous that we weren't able to walk with Jesus, but rather, experience his love in the Eucharist.  

Think about that this week.  Even though we weren't able to know Jesus in his human form, we are able to meet with daily through our prayer life and as often as possible through the Eucharist.  How are you encountering Jesus in your life?  What can you do to strengthen that bond with Jesus?
