BK Bulletin

Another Corporal Work of Mercy is "Visit The Sick". “Visit the Sick” encourages us to show compassion and care for those who are ill, injured, or otherwise in need of physical and emotional support. Some ways we can incorporate this teaching in our daily lives are:

◻ Ask a priest to visit the sick person

◻ Make sure that someone brings a sick person Communion & Anointing of the Sick

◻ Make a card a sick person, call them, and bring a thoughtful gift like pillows, games, books, etc.

◻ Bring someone who is sick a home-cooked meal

◻ Spend time with a sick person, especially if they are stuck at home or in the hospital

◻ Be extra nice to family members when they are sick

As November is the month of Remembrance, we will be passing our Book of Remembrance from class to class in the next few weeks to record the names of our family and friends who have died in the past year. We invite students and staff to bring pictures (preferably mounted or framed) and/or small mementos of any family members or friends who have died. They will be reverently displayed and will serve as a reminder of these loved ones and our call to pray for them. Please write your child's name on the back of the picture or memento so that we can return them at the end of November.
