Kids Corner, First Sunday of Advent, with Cian and Bella.

Luke 21:25-28, 34-36 • Be Alert
Cian: Hi there Guys, Bella is gone on a sleepover with her friend Emma so I am going to tell you about this Sunday’s Gospel. It is a really important Gospel for us to read and think about. It tells us that we should always keep our love of Jesus and others in our minds and hearts. It is important not to be impressed by other kids who may be bullying at school or gossiping downtown. Sometimes it is easy to forget about the right thing to do as that is often the most difficult thing to do, but being a decent person in our world is about respecting others, their difference and of course respecting ourselves by not letting ourselves down. Think about this and if you know kids who drag you down, stay away from them and always try to be a good friend by being honest and truthful. Tough job, but someone’s gotta do it! See you next week!
Don’t allow yourself to be influenced by negativity today!
