Easter Season with the First Disciples

Easter Season with the First Disciples

Spend Easter season sharing the joy of the first disciples by downloading the free reflection booklet by Bob Burnham. Reflect on scenes from the lives of:

  • St. Mary Magdalene
  • St. Peter
  • Cleopas on the road to Emmaus
  • St. Thomas
  • St. Stephen
  • St. Paul.

As they encountered Jesus in the days and weeks after the Resurrection, we are called to share the Good News in our day and age. Ponder the stories of these early disciples, and explore the lessons they have for us as catechists called to evangelize.

Each reflection also includes “In the Classroom” ideas to use with young people in your parish or school.

Burnham is a catechist and author of Little Lessons from the Saints: 52 Simple and Surprising Ways to See the Saint in You.
