If someone needs help, you can sometimes help them by giving them money.
This week’s Wednesday Word is SHARING. In this week’s gospel, Jesus told the Pharisees about a rich man and a poor man. The rich man wore the best clothes and consumed the best food, while the poor man called Lazarus had no food to eat. The rich man never shared.
Eventually, Lazarus died and lived in heaven with Abraham. When the rich man died, he didn’t go to heaven and begged Abraham for water because of the heat. Abraham said he lived a good life on earth and it was Lazarus’ turn to live a good life in heaven.
The moral of this week’s gospel is to share. We can give up our time to help at home, at school and church. We can also share our toys, books, and help each other with tasks.
This week’s Wednesday word is trustworthy.Jesus said to us that we cannot choose both God and money.It is like multitasking or doing more than one thing at once as it’s easier to do only one thing instead.It is the same with God, you can only either choose God or money.Jesus would want us to choose God over money as it will help us become closer and help us to grow closer to him with trust. In one of Jesus’s parables, a manager is fired by his master for lying and putting up peoples taxes.The manager then realises what he did and goes to the town people to build trust by saying to them if they owe his master 100 barrels of wheat to lower it to 80. His master realises what the manager has done and gives him his job back. It is important to build trust with friends and others as well as God so we can be able to go to heaven and so that God is happy and pleased with us as well.

This week’s Wednesday Word is SHARING. God doesn’t want us to stand by ourselves. He wants us to share our money, the things we love and and our talents with the others. This is the only way to make them shine.
This weeks Wednesday word is Sharing. Jesus was telling the Pharisees about a rich man who wore the best clothes and ate the best food. There was a poor man who sat outside the rich man’s house, who had sores and wanted to eat scraps from the rich man’s house. The poor man eventually died and went to heaven, but the rich man did not. We should share with the poor and needy. We can do this by giving to our local food bank, donating toys and clothes to charity and many more things.
The lesson from this Gospel is ‘do not ignore the poor’. If the poor need help, do not ignore them please I beg you.
I would like to share my packet of crisps with a homeless person.
This weeks Wednesday Word is Sharing. Jesus told the Pharisees “There once lived a rich man who had good clothes and good food to eat, there was this poor man who sat outside the rich man’s house and had sores ate scraps from the rich man’s house. The poor man died and went to heaven , but the rich man did not, We can share by giving the poor supplies to surive and giving food to our local food bank.
This week’s word is sharing. In this weeks gospel, Jesus told the Pharisees there was a rich man who had many food and even big feasts .There was also a poor man near the gate of the rich man’s house. He was called Lazarus. He was covered in sores and when dogs passed they would lick his sores. After a few days the poor man has died and also the rich man and now they were in bosom of Abraham. When the rich man came to Abraham’s bosom , he saw Lazarus with Abraham in the distance and shouted, ” Father Abraham, have pity on me and tell him to dip his finger on water and cool my tongue for I am in this heat. ”. ” Abraham said, “in your life you were rich and had every food while Lazarus was poor and had bad injuries and also was starving to death . So you had a good life it’s now his turn to be comfortable”. Now the rich man is not in heaven and is in the opposite side of heaven. So this gospel tells that you need to share things with the poor and give it to the charity so it can go to other parts of world to go to other poor people.
This weeks Wednesday word is sharing.In the gospel there was a rich man and a poor man.Whilst the rich man enjoyed feasts and wore expensive clothes,outside the poor man survived on scraps of the rich man’s food so weak he let dogs come to lick his wounds. When the poor man died though, he went to heaven and lived with the angels for everlasting but when the rich man died, he went to hell.This gospel tells us that you shouldn’t keep all of what you have and that to live a good and happy life, you will have to share with your fellow people.This doesn’t mean to just give to your friends and close ones, it also means to give to even the people you least like.Jesus said to love your neighbour as much as you love yourself and then you will go to heaven.Just like the patriot Saint of our school, (st Vincent de Paul)we to should share to one another for a sin free life with God.

In this, Jesus means that when you have a smaller amount of something you can grow up to big things like when you are a baby you grow up into a grown up.

The Pharisee was praying to God about holy he was and fasting twice a week, but the tax collector asked God for forgiveness and was humble by not looking up to the heavens when praying.

This week’s word is HUMBLE. You shouldn’t boast when you are praying to GOD because if you do, then God won’t grant you the forgiveness you need to get closer to him.

The disciples remembered a scripture; Jesus then said the temple should be destroyed and in 3 days rebuilt. He was talking about his body.
This tells us we should always be enthusiastic as people can change. We can do this by believing in others, praying to God to say sorry, say prayers together, avoiding greed, and instead giving to charity.
This weeks Wednesday word is Enthusiasm. Enthusiasm means to have strong excitement and active interest. In the Gospel, Jesus went to Jerusalem and entered a Temple.

Jesus was actually talking about his body. His disciples remembered what he had said when he rose from the dead.

The first one mocked him saying” Aren’t you the King of Jews” “If you are get us 3 out of here” . but the other one didn’t mock him and said ” Are you not afraid of God?” He is under the same sentence as us, but we are paying for our sins, but this man did nothing at all”. then after all that Jesus said to the second man “Truly you will be in paradise with me”.
This week’s gospel is all about advent. Advent is a time when is near Christmas and when Jesus is born. In the gospel, Jesus said to his disciples, “like flood came in Noah’s days, Son of Man’s coming is unknown.
For those days before the flood, people were feasting and drinking all day long, which means they were unprepared for the flood. If they were prepared everyone would have survived. So, with the time Noah had, he built an ark to protect those who believed in God plus animals.
I understood that Noah had heard God and does whatever he said because I know he believed in God and stood up for him. So, we have to be spiritually prepared the second coming of Jesus Christ.
This Advent I am going to be helpful and kind. This will help me prepare for Jesus when he is born. The season of Advent is the time when we let our family know how much we love them.
The word that stood for me is ‘paradise’. Jesus did nothing wrong and still he was on the cross and died so he deserves paradise. Jesus didn’t need mercy but he showed mercy to the criminal and told him to be in paradise with him.

The white candle, which is in the middle of the wreath, is lit on Christmas day.

Then, the flood hit and the people were shocked, just as we will be when Jesus comes.
This week’s Wednesday word is Advent. Advent is a time where you prepare for Jesus’s coming and birth.

So we have to be spiritually prepared when Jesus will come back for his second visiting.
I understand that Jesus is protecting us from doing sins and truly believes in God his beloved father. It’s very hard to stop losing someone and God made us to forget the past live your future .
