A reading from the Gospel according to John 15:9-17: Jesus said to his disciples: "As the Father loves me, so I also love you. This is my commandment: love one another as I love you. No one has greater love than this, to lay down one’s life for one’s friends."
Jesus is telling his disciples that he considers them friends because they are his followers and that he will lay down his life for them. He tells the disciples that the greatest commandment is to love one another.
1) What is the greatest commandement? (to love one another)
2) How does Jesus show he loves his disciples (by laying down his life for them)
3) How can you show your love for others this week?
