While walking near the East Drain, a section in the southern section of the area, Kalelspotted a shiney, dark-brown stone.

Religion

Eucharist: Giving thanks

We all love to give and receive gifts. Giving a gift to someone can be a way of showing them we love them or that we want them to know we care about them. It can also be a way of saying thank you to someone. Some gifts can be bought, but there are also gifts that money can’t buy. Sometimes the gifts that money can’t buy are the best gifts!

In your own mind or with conversation with your family, think about:

What do you think are the best gifts that God has given you? Write about them or draw an image of them. How can you use the gifts God has given you to bring joy or comfort to someone

you know – especially now that times are more challenging for all of us. USE your gifts!
