Gather
The Lord be with you
And also with you
Let the light of Christ shine in our lives

5. Receive
Jesus said to his disciples … ‘This is my commandment, that you love one another as I have loved you. No one has greater love than this, to lay down one’s life for one’s friends. You are my friends if you do what I command you. I do not call you servants any longer, because the servant does not know what the master is doing; but I have called you friends, because I have made known to you everything that I have heard from my Father.
From the Gospel according to John, chapter 15, verses 12 to 15

6. Engage
A man called Alban, believed to have been a Romano-British citizen of the Roman town of Verulamium in Britain around the end of the 3rd century, gave shelter to an itinerant Christian priest, later called Amphibalus.
Impressed by what he heard Alban was converted to Christianity by him.
When a period of persecution, ordered by the Emperor, brought soldiers in search of the priest, Alban exchanged clothes with him allowing him to escape and it was Alban who was arrested in his place…
Continues on next slide.

7. Engage
… Standing trial and asked to prove his loyalty by making offerings to the Roman gods, Alban bravely declared his faith in "the true and living God who created all things". This statement condemned Alban to death. He was led out of the city, across the river and up a hillside where he was beheaded.

8. Engage Some discussion ideas …
Why do you think that someone would give their life to save another person?
Do you know of anywhere in the world today where people are persecuted because of their religious belief?
Video suggestions …
The Roman town of Verulamium was later renamed St Albans and a great cathedral was built in his memory
Every year there is a festival to remember St Alban

9. Respond
Saint Alban, our friend and brother, watch over us now from your heavenly home. Help us keep safe the faith that you died for. Make us true brothers and sisters in Christ. Help us to grow stronger in God's love for evermore.
In the name of Jesus Christ.
Amen
