Something to Think
Have you heard the saying, ‘Do to others as you would have them do to you’? What do you think this means?
The Story
Today’s gospel story can be difficult to understand. It is a story about how things sometimes get reversed in God’s kingdom – the rich become poor and the poor become rich. The rich man is not welcomed into the kingdom, not because he was rich, but because he showed no kindness, no welcome and no compassion to the poor man.

Last weekend 41 students from Mother Teresa School celebrated their First Holy Communion. The mass was a very prayerful and joyous celebrations. The church was decorated beautifully to focus the congregation’s attention on the meaning of the Eucharist. All the first communicants were very reverent and proud as they celebrated this special day in their journey of faith.

Many thanks to all who made this occasion so special:
- Father Troy who was so welcoming of the children and their families and whose homily so aptly captured the significance of Eucharist in our lives today.

- The teachers, Justine Watt, Kathleen Macguire, Catherine Beckett & Lachlan Hennessy who prepared the students so well for this sacrament.

- Mel Unwin our Sacramental Preparation Officer who ensured all aspects of the preparation and celebration of First Eucharist was beautifully prepared.

- All the teachers who offered their support during the preparation time; and most importantly.

 - The parents who have supported their child in this important step in their faith journey.

Stay safe!

We look forward to seeing you refreshed and relaxed next term.
Peace and Best Wishes.
