(A HOPE APPEAL AGENCY)
The tree, symbolic of the family, is recognized as a
living, growing ever-changing creation of our Father.
Just as the tree is nourished by each of its parts:
leaves, branches, roots; so also family is strengthened
by the gifts of each of its members.

A FAMILY PERSPECTIVE from the Office of Family Life Education (a Hope Appeal agency)
October 31 & November 1, 2009
The Beatitudes are The Charter for Family Life. Parents constantly address "hunger and thirst, mercy and peacemaking," coax a "meek" child to speak up and teach the children to be "clean of heart." When we "mourn" a loved one, our family is there to "comfort" us. Believe Jesus: You are "BLESSED" in living as a family.
