The New Stigmata Saint of India Who Levitated The Silent Addiction to Technology The Real Easter Hallelujah Message Blessing to All: By: Richard Pickard “For those who live according to the flesh are concerned with the things of the flesh, but those who live according to the spirit with the things of the spirit.” (Romans 8:5) St. Paul was not talking about us acting as people created by God, but to those who have closed themselves to only matters of the flesh. He is talking about people who live only to satisfy their own desires. They care not for others, except for what others can do for them to satisfy their desires. In Philippians 1:21–24 we see a better example from St. Paul on the true meaning of Romans 8:5. “For to me to live is Christ, and to die is gain. If I am to live in the flesh, that means fruitful labor for me. Yet which I shall choose I cannot tell. I am hard pressed between the two. My desire is to depart [that is, to die and leave behind the body] and be with Christ, for that is far better. But to remain in the flesh is more necessary on your account.” Paul wants to help others understand the eternal and joyful salvation that Christ has to offer. Our life on earth is a series of frustrations, pains, sicknesses, hardships, and mental anguish when we live without the Spirit of Christ within us.

    Faith Lesson Plan and Faith Activity Chapter 20 – Examples for Living Source: (Our Sunday Visitor) Grades 7 & 8 Doctrinal Content • Mary lived a life of faithful obedience to God. She said "yes" to God and became the Mother of his Son and of all those who believe in him. (CCC, 148, 149, 964) • The Catholic Church teaches that, at the end of her life, Mary, body, and soul, was “taken up” (assumed) into Heaven. (CCC, 966) • The Church honors Mary as the preeminent member of the Communion of Saints and honors her with many feast days and devotions. (CCC, 1195) • Saints are role models for us. We are all called to be Saints and to accept God’s friendship, which leads us to a life of service. (CCC, 828) Invite – Let Us Pray Invite the young people to gather in the prayer space and make the sign of the Cross. Read aloud the leader's prayer. Proclaim the verse from Psalm 24:3,4, 5-6 together. Have the youth move out of the prayer space and back to their seats.

    CEPCM DIRECTORY 2012 I THE OFFICIAL TEACHINGS OF THE CHURCH ON THE PASTORAL CARE OF THE MIGRANTS The history of humankind is a history of migration. Migrations are on the increase day by day for reasons of better livelihood, or for other demands of life like jobs, strenuous conditions in one’s own country, religious persecution and so on. It is a matter of serious concern for all nations and people. There are many advantages along with it, like good job opportunities, peaceful life, higher salaries, wide range of living standards, etc. But it is a fact that migrants who have had to give up their homeland, possessions and relations inevitably carry with them the characteristics and memories of their own people as an indelible identity which cannot be renounced or denied. Experience has shown that the inability of expression in other than the mother language and loss of cultural and spiritual patrimonies not only damage the conscience but also cancel religious convictions and practices. As far as the Church is concerned, migration has a great missionary dimension. Pope Paul VI in Evangelii Nuntiandi notes: “It is the result of their living presence and witness in the midst of new people that forms new Churches. So they are the real seeds and the evangelizers” (n.21). Migration always involves uprooting, detachment from one’s people, culture and place. At the same time it is for insertion and integration into a new society and place. In the Old Testament God brought the Israelites to the promised land to make them a chosen race and wanted them to keep up their identity in the new land.
