However, the Bible offers instructions to all of us, not just to priests. In today’s reading from Leviticus, God says February 12, 2017 to Moses that he should teach the people this: “Be holy, for I, Weekly Offertory…$14,951.96 Priests Relief…$463 the LORD, your God, am holy.” Pastor’s Charity…$31 Youth…$541 There is no way, of course, that we can be as holy as God is. Catholic Education…$114 Build the Future…$1404 God is divine, not human, and thus His Holiness is above and Seminarian Education…$10 way beyond our capabilities. What God is saying to us though Retire Religious…$30 Christmas…$2550 is that we do need to strive for holiness. We often speak of our call to holiness and how we can try to achieve that. One way is

to embrace stewardship and all it entails as a way of life. 2016 CSA Assessment: $133,179.96 Will that make us holy like the Lord?

One of the lessons for the Christian steward in to- day’s Gospel is that if we have a chance to help someone in need, we should be generous and give more than is expected of us. Jesus went “the extra mile” for us. Can we be more like Jesus and “go the extra mile” for others?

Keep going until you have found all the little words. REMEMBER—each letter is used ONLY ONCE. As you use a letter, CROSS IT OUT so you don’t use it twice. Each column has the exact number of letters for that column—don’t mix columns. After all the small words are filled in then it becomes a process of elimination and deduction.
