Lesson for today:
We celebrate Mary this month of May – Use this coloring sheet to help us remember how Mary is the mother of the whole church.

Each member of the Church has important gifts and talents to share with the whole church. We are called to be part of the Church and an important way we gather as Church is to go to Mass and receive the Eucharist. Watch - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ICDdm-NqtoQ
Questions for reflection: What does the baker and his son learn about the Mass? What have you learned about the Mass since not being able to go to the Church building every Sunday? Is this situation helping you understand the weight of a Mass?
Dear Children;
Please continue to live the weekly gospel message at home with your families. This week especially:
Think of ways you can honor your earthly mother this week. For example: write a letter thanking your mother for all she has done and is doing for you; create a greeting card; make a book of coupons - each coupon offering a different little gift.
Place a statue or picture of Mary on a table. Fill a small vase with water and some flowers from the garden or draw some flowers or cut flowers from a magazine for her. Light a small candle and pray the rosary as a family in honor of Mary.
Blessings, Irma
