Deepening your relationship with Jesus Christ

  • Read the Gospel of the day every morning and/or evening. Ask yourself, what do I hear? How am I challenged? How am I comforted?
  • Spend time in prayer every day. Start with a short time -- 1 to 5 minutes, and increase the time you spend over the next month.
  • Participate in Sunday Eucharist every week. It is the place where we meet Jesus in a very special way.
  • Before every meal, thank Jesus for the gift of life, the gift of bread you share.
  • Make it a habit to greet the day with an affirmation of Jesus presence in your life and in the world.
  • End your day with a short examination of how you met Jesus this day.
  • Visit a website that offers some meditation or opportunities to reflect on your relationship with Jesus.
  • Read a spiritual book, a chapter each day.
  • Look for moments on your day when you need Jesus, or you sense Jesus' presence. Honor those moments with attentiveness.
  • Reflect on the Eucharistic Prayer you hear at Mass. Ther are several to choose from. Reflect on the words that bring us to a renewed relationship with Jesus through the Eucharist.
