On Thursday, our Year 6 Youth Ministry Team visited classes from ELC to Year 6 and led class prayer, celebrating the Feast of St Mary of the Cross MacKillop. In the Catholic Church, a Feast Day is a special day when we remember and thank God for the lives of holy people who showed us how to love and follow Jesus. In the Gospel of Matthew, Jesus told us that every time we help someone, even with something small, we are helping Him. Mary MacKillop took this to heart. She didn’t just feel sad when she saw someone in need … she did something. She started schools for children who didn’t have one, she comforted the sick and she stood up for what was right, even when it was hard.
