| | Speaking with Our Children about the Death of Pope John Paul IIWritten by Lisa M. Hendey
Continued from page 1
•Family Rosary – Knowing Holy Father’s dedication to Rosary, family time spent praying Rosary is a wonderful tribute to John Paul II. Sassy, mother to nine from Iowa, has encouraged her children to remember Cardinals in their prayers during this important time of discernment. •“Be not afraid!” - Bea, mother of five from Arizona, is one of my favorite “experts” and a continual font of wisdom for me, as she has raised one daughter and four sons, (including one priest and two seminarians). She counsels: “When Christ died apostles were afraid, ran and hid for a while. When our first Pope, St. Peter died, I'm sure Catholics at time were also afraid. When a baby is being born, it is said HE is afraid. He is leaving only world he's ever known. He has a sense that he will die, But his life is about to begin. The Pope's life, his life in eternity is about to begin, we should rejoice for him. When Christ ascended into heaven he told apostles they should rejoice because He is going to Father. The Pope's mission on earth was finished and God called him home. We should rejoice for him. It is for ourselves that we weep because he has left us. Christ said about Church that "the gates of hell shall not prevail against it." We have God's Word, nothing else is needed. Another phase will begin in Our Church, we should rejoice. God will not abandon us. He never has. It is we who abandon Him by sin. The only thing we should fear is sin. It is time to pray for our Church and await what God has in store for us. The Pope would always say "Be not afraid." The biggest honor we can give our Pope at this time is to heed his words.”Regardless of how you and your family take time to commemorate John Paul II and his papacy and life of service, time spent in prayer and conversation with our children during this historic time will be remembered for years to come. We need look no further than to example offered us by this special light of Christ himself as we take time with our own loved ones to remember him and to seek his intercession in turning our hearts towards Jesus Christ.
