Spiritual Work of Mercy: Bear wrongs patiently: “If you struggle with gossip or unkind speech, don’t act based on what you think others deserve, but act based on what God deserves. My worship of God is only as authentic as the honor I give those He created in His image.” (Alison Blanchet).

Merciful Motion for this Week: Practice kind speech when you are annoyed or hurt this week.

RANDOM ACTS OF KINDNESS

Several years ago a grandfather of a student at HFRS approached the

administration with an idea. He wanted to encourage and support acts

of kindness performed by children throughout the day. He agreed to

make a donation to the school if there was a way to acknowledge these

children. It was decided that the staff would write the names children on

a slip of paper as they witnessed these numerous acts. The program was

called Random Acts of Kindness and has continued ever since. The

student’s names are submitted and monthly drawings are held. The

winner from each grade then selects a charity to which a donation is

made in their name. By celebrating these children’s acts of kindness

during morning announcements and a photo posted on the Random Acts

of Kindness Wall, we hope to empower these children to continue with

this ministry. The school had maintained the program beyond the

grandfather’s initial donation until last year when the grandfather

learned we had continued his vision, he then made another donation to

our school. We believe kindness truly is contagious at Holy Family

Regional School!
