Catholic News Agency: "'Instead, heaven is the real goal of our earthly pilgrimage,' he stated. 'How different our days would be if they were guided by this perspective! This is what it was for the saints. Their lives witnessed that when one lives with one's heart constantly turned to heaven, earthly realities are lived in the proper proportion.'"
Week 1 Day 3 of Little Saints: today we focused on heaven and its beauty. "What no eye has seen, nor ear heard, nor the heart of man conceived, what God has prepared for those who love Him." 1 Cor 2:9
Part of today's assignments was to decorate a picture of 'The Heavenly Jerusalem' with sparkly paints and beads...the kids did a great job and had a wonderful time. Then I explained to them that on this day we are celebrating the day that Mary went to heaven...what a wonderful day of rejoicing it must have been for her...to finally see her Son again.
Oh when the Saints go marching in...
