St Mary's The Wednesday Word- Love
Dear Parents and Carers,
Love is life’s greatest blessing. St Teresa of Calcutta
once said, “Love begins at home, and it is not how
much we do that matters … but how much love we put into it.”
In Sunday’s Gospel, we listen to the words of Jesus at
the Last Supper. Jesus gives his friends, the disciples, a new
commandment – they must love one another as Jesus
loves them, with whole-hearted and unlimited generosity.
The new commandment which Jesus gave to his friends
is for us too – today! Everyone likes to be loved and
family and school life become more joyful when we follow Jesus’ command to love one another.
Enjoy a special time together, hearing your child’s
thoughts about this Sunday’s Gospel and this
Wednesday’s word, which is LOVE.
