Then, we’ll study Jesus’ words to his disciples as he turns to face the cross. Together, we’ll see how Jesus invites us to follow him in faith, sacrifice, and hope for us.

When we study and reflect on Jesus’ words to the disciples as he turns to face the cross, we find an invitation to follow him in faith, sacrifice, and hope.
