The Prodigal Son — Part II: The Father Runs to Meet Us | Catholic Bible Story for Families

Jesus finishes one of His most powerful parables — and shows us what God’s love really looks like.

In Part II of The Prodigal Son, families will hear the breathtaking moment when a loving father runs to embrace his son, restores his dignity, and invites everyone into a joyful celebration. Through imaginative storytelling, humor, and gentle reflection, kids will discover that God’s love is never earned — it’s always a gift.

Perfect for Catholic families with kids ages 6–14:
✨ Bedtime wind-down
🚗 The school drive
🙏 Sunday quiet time

Stay until the end for a short guided prayer and these simple family discussion moments:

• If our family threw a welcome-home party tonight, what one food and song would you request?
• Which son did you feel more like today — the younger one who made mistakes, or the older one who felt envious? Why?
• What did you feel God wanted you to know today?
• If you were returning from a hard day, what do you think God would say to you when you came back?
