You will need:

• A journal (A scribbler/diary/binder with paper). Do not use technology.

• Pen/Pencil

• Note, you may wish to get a Sunday Missal for this option. Talk to your Parish office or Chaplain as to how to get one. Please note that you are allowed to journal write during mass but please put down your journal during the Eucharistic liturgy.

The first page of your journal, write a response that answers the following questions:

(It is an expectation that legitimate sources are used for this portion: the Catechism, or a conversation with your chaplain/priest).

1. What is the purpose of the mass?

2. What is the pinnacle of the mass?

3. Why do we have Sunday Obligation?

4. Why do Catholics see the Eucharist as the full body, blood, soul and divinity of Christ?

Include in each journal reflection:

1. 1. 1. Name of priest celebrating mass and the date

      2. Make reference to the homily

      3. Make reference to the readings

      4. Personal element to reflection

Though this is a personal journal, here are some questions to consider if you are struggling on what to write:

• What particular scripture stands out to you and why?

• What particular line from the homily stuck out to you and why?

• What is going on in your life that makes you relate to the scripture/homily?
