                       MOTJARI YOUTH GROUP
      DATE: 3/20/2015  6:50pm PLACE: St. Paul Hasang Church
      (DesPlaines)
      SPEAKER: Fr. Foeckler TOPIC: Good Friday
      Fr.
      Foeckler started out all the children writing their names on the board.
      He
      then wrote a prayer:
      t We adore you O Christ and
      we bless You
      R Because by Your holy
      cross You have redeemed the world.
      Each
      person recited the first line of the prayer and rest of the group recited the
      refrain.
      Fr.
      Foeckler then took us back to the Jesus’ time of Good Friday.  
      Days
      before the death. Starting with the Last Supper, Betrayal of Judah, Praying
      at the
      Mount
      Gathsemane,  and Carrying of the cross.
      Luke
      23:26   As the soldiers led Him away,
      they seize Simon from Cyrene, who was on his way
                          in from the country, and
      put the cross on him and made him carry it behind Jesus.
      Just
      as Simon from Cyrene who had bear the cross with Jesus and Veronica who had
      wiped the 
      blood
      from Jesus’ face with her veil in comfort, we as christian should follow
      their example during
      this
      Lent season. As we have written our names on the chalkboard today, let our
      names bear the 
      cross
      and to comfort Jesus during His suffering.
        Be like Veronica and
      Simon during this Lent
      “Help Jesus carry
      the cross”
      How do we help Jesus
      carry the cross?
      “Help somebody! Do good deeds
      for them! Pray for them!”
      Jesus
      redeemed (buy back) the instrument of torture (cross) into Instrument of
      Holiness.
      Amen.
