Marriage Tip: “Repent, and believe in the gospel.” 

(Mk 1:15) Husband and wife are bound to 

emotionally hurt each other at times. It may be a 

careless word or wanting your way. Don’t be too 

proud to repent. “I’m sorry” is the first step. Making 

amends is the next.

Helping our children grow in their Catholic faith. March 2012 

Saint Peter the Apostle Roman Catholic Church 

Never say “never” 

When discouraged, children can 

get stuck thinking 

negatively. “I’ll never 

learn to do this.” “I’ll 

never be good at that.” 

“Never” may be part of 

our vocabulary, but it 

isn’t part of God’s. The 

next time you hear 

“never” from your child, remind 

her that we can do anything with 

God’s help. “For with God nothing 

will be impossible” (Luke 1:37). 

Start talking now 

Don’t hesitate to talk to 

youngsters about topics that may 

be over their heads. While the Holy 

Trinity or the Real Presence might 

be too complicated for them now, 

they will understand more as they 

grow. 

Pray the moment 

Catholics parents faithfully teach 

formula prayers such as the Our 

Father or the Hail Mary but we can 

neglect to teach 

spontaneous 

prayer, too. 

Don’t forget to 

let children 

hear you 

praise God for 

the sunset, thank 

him for a safe trip 

to school, or 

apologize for your 

misdeed.

Lenten renewal for the family 

Lent isn’t just about sacrifice. This is 

also a time to make changes that will 

either bring us closer to God or give 

him a central place in our family life. 

Consider these ideas: 

Ban sports 

teams or 

activities that 

interfere with 

attending Mass. If 

you have to choose 

between travel 

soccer or baseball 

and attending Mass on 

Sunday, find a different 

soccer or baseball team. 

For Catholics, the 

Eucharist and Mass come 

before everything. 

Make Sunday about you and God. 

Fix dinner on Saturday so that you 

only have to warm it up on Sunday. 

Use disposable plates so there are no 

dishes to wash. Postpone errands or 

chores to another day. Spend the extra 

When we use our 

voices, our minds, and 

even our bodies during 

prayer, we can pray with 

greater enthusiasm and 

attention. That’s one of 

the reasons we stand, 

kneel, and sit during 

Mass. 

We are also invited to 

George Brunner, Coordinator of Religious Education 

time relaxing, reading from Scripture, 

praying a family Rosary, or learning 

about a saint you 

haven’t met. 

Participate in your 

parish. Make a point of 

taking your children 

to First Friday 

observances, feast 

days, and May 

Crowning. These are 

wonderful expressions of our 

Catholic spirituality. 

Pay God first. It takes 

money to do God’s 

work in the world 

and the top funding 

source for the Catholic 

Church’s ministries is her 

generous people. Teach 

children to regularly put into the 

collection basket a portion of their 

allowance or monetary gifts they 

receive. This conveys the idea that all 

we have really belongs to God. 

Why do Catholics strike their 

chests during some prayers? 

use gestures. Striking one’s chest 

is an ancient symbol of sorrow 

and repentance. During the 

Confiteor, for example, we strike 

our chests at the words, 

“through my fault, through my 

fault, through my most 

grievous fault” to 

demonstrate sorrow for our 

sins.

Have you ever noticed that well-mannered 

children really stand out? In fact, studies show 

that teachers, coaches, and others in authority 

are inclined to be kinder and better disposed 

toward children who have good manners and 

who behave respectfully. Teaching children to 

use respectful behavior will help to let their 

light shine before men. 

Create rules for behavior. Children benefit 

from specific guidelines for how to behave, 

starting with “treat others as you would want to 

be treated.” Guidelines can include how to 

Being a follower of Christ can be hard. 

Jesus told his disciples that it’s similar to 

being a grain of wheat. Like most 

seeds, it has to die in order to 

produce new life. For us that 

means being less concerned 

about what we want and 

more concerned about what 

God wants. 

Jesus said that we must 

“hate” our lives and be 

willing to lose them so 

that we can live. He 

meant that we have to push aside our 

attachment to possessions, concern for 

our own pleasure, and worry about how 

others see us so that we can serve God 

March 7 – Sts. Perpetua and Felicity 

(203). Perpetua was a noble young 

mother who refused to renounce her 

faith. Felicity was a slave and expectant 

mother who also refused to deny her 

Christianity. Felicity gave birth and 

both women were martyred three days 

later. 

March 9 – St. Frances of Rome 

(1440). Although she preferred a life of 

service, Frances’ wealthy parents 

required that she marry. With a 

sister-in-law, Frances formed a group of 

women dedicated to serving the poor. 

Frances honored her husband and 

cared for her children until their 

Raising respectful children 

John 12:20-33, 

obedient like Jesus 

properly. Serving God brings eternal 

life and that’s better than 

anything the world can offer us. 

Jesus knew he would be 

crucified and, being human, 

he dreaded it. He also 

knew that God sent him 

here to pay the price for 

our sins, so Jesus said 

“no” to what he 

wanted and obeyed 

his Father. 

What can a parent do? Help 

children understand that obeying 

God is more important than anything 

the world can give us – and the reward 

lasts forever. 

deaths, and heroically served the poor 

and sick. 

March 17 – St. Patrick (493). Born 

in Scotland, St. Patrick was kidnapped 

and brought to Ireland as a slave. He 

escaped but later returned to become 

the bishop of Ireland and is credited 

for having established the Church 

there. 

March 19 – St. Joseph (1st century). 

Jesus’ earthly father and 

husband to the 

Blessed Mother, 

St. Joseph is a 

model of 

fatherhood 

and a 

protector of 

families. 

March 2012 Page 2 

handle arguments or how to speak to adults. 

Teach by example. Saying “please,” “thank you,” 

and “excuse me” is a good start. Model 

attentiveness by not interrupting when someone 

else is speaking, not raising your voice 

unnecessarily, or by avoiding bad words or 

violent language. 

Use Scripture. There are many examples of 

both respectful and disrespectful behavior in the 

Bible. For example, when Jesus was on trial, he 

was slapped in the face. He politely protested 

(John 18:23). Jesus is always a great model for us. 

Our middle-school daughter, Terry, 

has been best friends with Vicki since 

they were in first 

grade at St. Teresa’s 

together. Without 

any explanation, 

Vicki suddenly 

stopped talking to 

her. Worse, she got 

other girls to 

isolate Terry as 

well. Terry was 

crushed. 

When Terry asked me for help, I 

showed her the steps Jesus suggested 

for resolving disputes in Mathew 

18:15-17. She followed each one, and 

even got a mediator and talked to our 

priest. 

Fr. Michael told her that it sounds like 

Vicki wanted to take a break from being 

friends but didn’t know how to tell 

Terry properly. He said it happens a lot 

with girls Vicki’s age. Still, no matter 

what Vicki does, Terry needs to be kind. 

But Father urged Terry to find other 

girls who were more worthy of her 

friendship. And he told her he was sure 

Jesus was proud that she behaved as he 

asked.

institutions have been prominent in the news recently. To

something” but more importantly to “give something for the 

poor.” Wherever you live in the parish, there are poor families 

within walking distance of your home. When in need, they ring 

the rectory bell. They are, in effect, ringing your doorbell. Your 

gift in the poor box will help the poor to celebrate the grace of 

God’s love this Easter. Volunteers are also needed (301-662- 

4676).

PARISH NURSE NOTES: Get My People Going theme: 

Prayer. Prayer time is important to not only our spiritual health, 

but to our overall health, as well. It reminds us that we do not 

carry the weight of the world – that job belongs to God. It 

reminds us that we are God’s creatures, and that we are 

connected to others – our families, our friends, our 

communities, and all the blessings of the earth. Let us agree 

to remember each other in prayer this day. Join us for our 

GMPG session about Prayer – some different ways to pray, 

hoping to get closer to God.
