The Gen Saver!

Jul 22, 2012

Here is a children’s game for the summer of 2012. To “be saved” you need to give, then the lifesaver will work.

How the game is played

Throw a pebble on the page:

  • if it touches a lifesaver you earn the number of points shown above the life vest, following the directions written inside the buoy
  • if it touches the large colourful fish 100 points are given to the player with the least number of points
  • the player whose pebble lands closest to the lighthouse earns 1000 points

Every time we give, we will find happiness again, it will be like having a lifesaver that makes us float with joy!

Living the Gospel: seeing our brothers and sisters

The Word of the Gospel proposed for this month is: “My soul magnifies the Lord”, the opening words of Mary’s song when she met Elizabeth.
The commentary on the Word of Life says, “The words of this hymn invite us to understand God’s salvific intervention in our personal and community life, leading towards the new heavens and the new earth that the social revolution of the Gospel inaugurates.”
These experiences show us that praising God means taking the side of the little ones and believing that the world can, and must, change.
