RELIGIOUS MATTERS- Megan Boyd
SUNDAY GOSPEL REFLECTION-29th Sunday in Ordinary Time
Gospel Reading St. Mark, 10:35-45
The reading tells us that Jesus talked about the leaders of the people and how they enjoyed having power over others. He said that it must not be that way among His followers. Leaders are meant to serve others, and Jesus came as an example of how to serve.
In today’s Gospel, Jesus says that many leaders use their power over others to make themselves more important.
Jesus says we must never be like that. To be the most important, we must serve others.
St Joseph's SPIRIT OF JESUS AWARD
At St Joseph's we remind our students that they are the living disciples of Jesus. We also encourage our students to look for the goodness in others. Our school Vice Captains-Mission this year Aya Stahl and Cooper Bailey have been responsible for helping to acknowledge students who demonstrate the attitudes and gospel values that show the Spirit of Jesus.
If we have the spirit of Jesus in our hearts, we are kind, compassionate, welcoming, cheerful, friendly, encouraging, giving, forgiving thankful, and respectful. The Spirit of Jesus Award will be presented from Week 3 this term.
