The readings for the 6th Sunday in Ordinary Time Year C are all about being blessed, which might also be translated happy or lucky. o the focus this weekend is on the Beatitudes and the many blessings in our lives.
This Blessings and Woes lesson plan on the Beatitudes will help youth understand the good and bad things which Jesus warns people about in the Sermon on the Plain from the Gospel of Luke.
This Litany of the Beatitudes is a prayer which helps us remember the beatitudes. It also asks for our Lord’s grace so we can live these values in our daily lives.
This Not So Happy Meal Game is a gross game. Youth will be asked to volunteer to eat a Happy Meal. But they don’t realize it will be blended up! Be prepared for some gagging and extreme reactions.
The memorial of St. Paul Miki and Companions remembers twenty-six martyrs were crucified on a hillside overlooking Nagasaki, Japan in the year 1597.
This prayer of a grateful heart, based on Psalm 138, expresses gratitude for God’s loving care. We may seem insignificant in this world, but we are important to our Heavenly Father.
