Be Like Jesus Activity Book 2026

Be Like Jesus is a week-by-week activity book that engages and connects students to the Sunday Liturgical Gospel readings for 2026. Each Gospel-based activity encourages students to Read, Respond, Reflect and Engage with the Sunday readings and learn to practise over 48 Gospel values demonstrated by Jesus every week!

Let Jesus be their role model. The call by Jesus in the Gospels transforms, because following Jesus always leads to happiness and gives meaning to life.

Be Like Jesus helps students to interact with the 2026 Sunday Gospel passages using a very simplified version of Lectio Divina:

Read the Word – reading a brief version of the Gospel passage.
Respond – completing a fun activity that reinforces what has been read.
Reflect and Engage – reflecting and completing a follow-up task.
Gospel Value/Virtue – learning about the Gospel Value/Virtue illustrated in the passage.
Be Like Jesus – applying the Gospel Value/Virtue demonstrated by Jesus and completing thought-provoking reflection questions.

Use Be Like Jesus as a weekly teacher-lead or take home parent-lead activity.
