  • Living Faith Archdiocese � St
    ROMAN CATHOLIC LIVING FAITH ARCHDIOCESE � ST. JOHN'S THIRTY-THIRD SUNDAY IN ORDINARY TIME THE GOSPEL FOR TODAY Matthew 25: 14-30 'For it is as if a man, going on a journey, summoned his slaves and entrusted his property to them; to one he gave five talents, to another two, to another one, to each according to his ability. Then he went away. After a long time the master of those slaves came and settled accounts with them. Then the one who had received the five talents came forward, bringing five more talents, saying, "Master, you handed over to me five talents; see, I have made five more talents." His master said to him, "Well done, good and trustworthy slave; you have been trustworthy in a few things, I will put you in charge of many things; enter into the joy of your master." REFLECTION ON THE GOSPEL Jesus teaches in parables in order to give us glimpses of what God is like. People often think that the Kingdom of Heaven is a place or a state of being that will exist after our earthly life is finished; but this is not the Kingdom that Jesus speaks of so often in His stories. The Kingdom of Heaven that Jesus speaks of, the Kingdom that He worked so hard to bring about, is possible here on earth, if we love one another. In the Kingdom of Heaven, people are like the slave who was good and trustworthy, who carefully tend and nurture all that the master gave him, making it grow and flourish and increase.

  • Blessed Marie-Rose (Eulalie) Durocher
    Blessed Marie-Rose (Eulalie) Durocher (1811-1849) Educator of Poor Children Catechetical Activity Ages 6-8 1 Blessed Marie-Rose (Eulalie) Durocher (Educator of Poor Children, 1811-1849) Materials Needed: Blessed Marie-Rose Durocher’s biography (short version), copies of the activity sheet (1 per child), pencils, pencil crayons, markers, etc. Gathering: 1. Ask the children to gather around and sit quietly for a moment. 2. Have a discussion with the children about how fortunate they are to live in a country where education is free. Every person in Canada, regardless of what city they live in, or what their parents/guardians do for a living, goes to school for free. Explain to the group that not all children in the world have the privilege of going to school and learning. There are children in many different countries that cannot go to school because it is too expensive, or the school is too far away from their home. Listening: 1. Read Blessed Marie-Rose Durocher’s biography on pages 3-4. You may find it beneficial to paraphrase some parts of the biography for the children. 2. Remind the children that Blessed Marie-Rose Durocher made education for poor children her priority. Ask the children to think about what that would mean for children who would otherwise not be able to receive an education. (Ex. they will learn how to read, might be able to have a better job, earn money to help provide for their family, have more confidence, meet new people and make friends, etc.) Doing: 1. Ask the children to use the template on page 5 to create an acrostic poem for ‘charity’ – Blessed Marie-Rose’s favourite virtue.
