Wow! 21 Days of isolation. 21 Days in which we’re only allowed to be in our homes (or gardens) and can only go out for the most essential things like food and medicine. It can be a little rough! All the things we usually do during the day, like school, sport, church … are not happening anymore. It can really confuse you and maybe even bore you a little. These daily readings will help you to spend some time with Jesus every day in a creative and fun way. You can do these readings and activities by yourself, with your siblings, or with your entire family. Ask one of the grownups to post your activity on Facebook so that others can enjoy it with you. Tag it with #solitudecalendar #churchtogether

Have you ever put on a mask and pretend that you are someone else? It is easy to pretend you are someone else when you have a mask on. If you think about it, it is actually very easy to pretend many things. That is why Paul asks the believers in Rome to sincerely love each other. We must genuinely love each other and not pretend to love one another.
Have you ever pretended that you like something, but you did not really? Tell the story.
In what way can we show true love towards each other?
