HAPPENINGS WITH KID’S JUNCTION
Prayer for the Week (Sept. 29-Oct. 5)
Let us pray to God for compassionate and generous hearts: Our generous and loving God, your Son Jesus is risen from the dead and tells us to see the needs of the poor and to give them food and drink. May we recognize your Son in them. We ask this in the name of Jesus our Lord. Amen.

Sunday Reflection (September 29, 2019)
The prophet Amos points out that those who could have made a difference chose not to make a difference. Abundance had blinded them to the plight of those who had no abundance (Amos 6:1-8). In the parable of the rich man and Lazarus, the rich man thought he had no responsibility for the poor, sick beggar named Lazarus; but in the end, the rich man was judged harshly because of neglect, indifference, and a lack of compassion (Luke 16:19-31).
Whom do we neglect for whom we could make a difference? I mean this in a personal way and social way as a Church, a community, and a nation. Does abundance blind us to the plight of those who no abundance? Do we heed the words of the prophet Amos? Do we heed the words of Jesus Christ?
Prayer for the Week (Sept. 22-Sept. 28)
Let us pray to the Lord that we be fair and generous to all: Just and merciful God, may we neither adore money and possessions nor sacrifice the poor to them. May our hearts be gentle and compassionate so that we not neglect the dispossessed and those trampled upon. May we share with them in your name, Christ Jesus our Lord. Amen.
