Make a Scarecrow
Learning how to make a scarecrow is pretty easy and fun for all ages! Scarecrows are ideal as fall decorating ideas and can add a festive feeling to your autumn porch. Search the Internet for material lists and instructions. Go to a local Goodwill store to get overalls, flannel shirts, or other clothes for the scarecrow. Collect the rest of the materials you need and have fun!
Life and Dignity of the Human Person Prayer
God of all life,
Help us to appreciate the great gift that is human life
formed in your image, a reflection of your holiness.
Help us to recognize you
in all whom you have created:
children not yet born,
families affected by poverty and war,
people of different abilities,
people from other lands, and
all who are victims of hatred and racism.
Help us to bear witness to the dignity of all whom you have created,
regardless of stage of life,
or wealth,
or ability,
or color, or creed,
for every person is fully equal in your loving eyes.
Share with us your holy knowledge
that we are all your children,
each bestowed with inherent dignity.
May your justice reign forever! Amen.
At what point during the Mass are we able to give our treasure back to God?
