Super job!! In the Sermon on the Mount, Jesus introduces God's beatitude point of view, which promises life with God for people who seem unimportant in our world - the poor, the meek, lowly, sorrowing, and persecuted, mercy-givers, and the pure of heart. Jesus reveals that beatitude or happiness with God is our ultimate call. In this sermon Jesus tells us not only to keep the Ten Commandments but to do even more - to love our enemies, to forgive those who hurt us, to go the extra mile, to make up with people before we bring gifts to God, to treat others the same way we want to be treated. These teachings are challenging not only to children but to adults as well. Always doing the right thing isn't easy but it is what God asks us to do so that we can share eternal life with him in heaven. Take a moment to look over the beatitudes below to become familiar with them. then answer the questions below. When you are done, we will begin to look more closely at the steps you will be taking for First Reconciliation.
Jesus wants all people to have ______________ that lasts. *
The Beatitudes are like a ________ that will lead us to real happiness. *
Great job!! As you prepare for First Reconciliation remember that it is okay to feel a little nervous. If you are feeling worried or unsure prayer is a great place to help you to start feeling better. Jesus promises to forgive us and to give us peace. So, ask him, through prayer, for that peace. The Sacrament of Reconciliation heals our souls when we hurt them by sinning. When we confess our sins to a priest, it is God who hears us and forgives our sins. God always forgives us if we are sorry, no matter how big or how many your sins are, but he also asks us to change our behavior. 
Super great job!  I want you to remember that "Reconciliation is a Celebration." It is a celebration of God's power to make all things new for us!! We will continue to learn more about this celebration as we continue our lessons!
