Liturgical Celebrations. There are enabling
activities that will help you study the

The important concept they to understand in this lesson is how to make the liturgical celebration
alive and meaningful.

Study the following:

Liturgy?

 The term liturgy comes from the combination of two Greek Words “ergos” which
means work and “leiton”, an adjective of leos-laos, which means people. Leitorgia
means “public work”. Thus, from its root words, liturgy signifies “public service”
in the sense of serving/worshipping God as a people or a community.
 It is always in the first place of communion or fellowship with Jesus Christ. It is
known to be central to Christianity because for in it and through it the mystery of
our salvation is remembered, celebrated and dispensed.
 It is a celebration of our life with Christ. It is a celebration of meeting Christ. It is
a solemn yet joyful celebration because we are invited by Christ to be His guests
in that spiritual meal.

VALUE INTEGRATION
August - Compassion (Commitment to the Less Privileged Sectors of Society)

We are in a pandemic; an unprecedented time in our history. This has dramatically changed our everyday
lives, and unfortunately many got ill, lost loved ones, and experienced financial crisis. Together we are
experiencing isolation, fear, anxiety and many more uncertainties and unknowns about now and the future.
However, if we look out there, many members of our society are suffering the effects of this pandemic
more than we do; poverty and hunger are across the land. This situation calls us to spread kindness and
compassion.

Compassion literally means: “suffering together”, being in solidarity with. When we feel and understand
distress in others, compassion gives us the courage and wisdom to do something about it. Compassion is
not the same as empathy, though the concepts are related. While empathy refers more generally to our
ability to take the perspective of and feel the emotions of another person, compassion is when those
feelings and thoughts include the desire to help. It motivates us to help, to be kind, and to give support to
others who are suffering because we know instinctively what they need to ease that struggle. Compassion
has a powerful energy, it makes us stretch our hands to help others, to walk extra miles to bring goodness
to those who need it. When there is so much around us that remains unknown, our compassion, kindness
and humanity give us certainty and safety.

Being compassionate and kind is, however, not just about giving to others. We need to be compassionate
and kind to ourselves, otherwise it is incomplete. We must try not to judge ourselves so harshly in our
relationships, as students, children, parents, or friends. This is a time to appreciate who we are as
individuals, to recognize and value our different strengths, and accept our common humanity. We are all
less than perfect and we are all doing the best we can in the circumstances we find ourselves in. If we start
being compassionate to ourselves, it would be much easier for us to reach out to others.

Most people are already feeling low, let us stop the hate. Kindness and compassion will conquer this
pandemic. Let us begin in our homes, and share the light to the world.
