The 27th of August brought together about 25 primary school children and 15 secondary/young adults in 2 separate events to the Kadina Catholic Church. Each group watched a film with a Christian theme (The Lion of Judah and October Baby), then had some food, watched a circus performance with a resurrection theme and heard a young adult talk about her faith. Everyone agreed that it was a wonderful event that should certainly be repeated!

The traditional corporal and spiritual works of mercy promoted by the Church have not specifically included mercy on the natural (non-human) world. Pope Francis has called for the works of mercy to be expanded to encompass caring for Our Common Home.
Mother Teresa was canonised by Pope Francis on Sunday, with powerful events in Rome. In honour of her, food was provided to disadvantaged members of society as she would surely have us do. Pope Francis mentioned that while she is now ‘Saint’, so remains ‘Mother Teresa’ to many of us. 
This is a very positive news story about some young people in Australia who have chosen to follow a vocational call to priesthood or the consecrated life.
