The Program that the Catholic Board were promoting
I am proud of the pro-active steps our educators our Catholic Educators were taking. This recent stuff makes it sound like our schools were not doing anything.

Special Relationship with God
We live in a culture where the power of the individual is celebrated and held up as the goal of life. The value of my life is found in fulfilling my bucket list; in doing what I want. With this mindset, any law is seen as a restriction of personal rights and somehow people feel that everyone would be happy if nobody told anyone how to live.
In contrast to this, Pentecost was originally a Jewish festival celebrating the giving of the Law on Mount Sinai at the time of the first fruits of the land in spring. The word it self means “the 50th day” and refers to the earliest harvesting of the spring vegetation. The Law of the Lord was not seen as a restriction but as the first fruits of a unique relationship with God. Jewish people joyfully celebrate the law by literally writing it on their foreheads and on their doorposts. The law is seen as the guide to a special relationship with God; something to be truly celebrated.
As Christians, the law of love becomes inflamed by coming of the Holy Spirit. On Pentecost, Catholics celebrate the Living Law of God written on our hearts. The Law of God fulfilled in Christ not only guides us but the Holy Spirit empowers us to follow the way, the truth and the life which is Christ.

Long Weekend
I spent the day in my swim trunks and discovered it is possible for one man to eat a watermelon I three days. God bless long weekends! And Queen Victoria!

Awaking up
Each year women spend 1 billion dollars on summer clothes that don't fit. I just heard that on the radio. Wow!
