Luke 23:39-43

The scripture is set at the time of Jesus’....

Where the two criminals are on the cross with Jesus, one of the criminals recognised Jesus as the messiah “Are you the messiah? Save yourself and us!”. But the second criminal had then realised they're there because they have done wrong things. He then also recognised Jesus and knew that Jesus did not do anything wrong. He then said “Jesus, remember me when you come into your kingdom .” Jesus then replied, saying he will truly remember him and he would walk into heaven with him.

In Aotearoa/New Zealand, New Zealanders around the country have taken part in celebrating Guy Fawkes. Thousands of people have gathered around public firework exhibits. In Auckland there were exhibits at Waitakere, and also at Orewa Beach. In Christchurch, there was a themed David Bowie firework display.

All Saint's Day

St. Mother Teresa

I chose Mother Teresa, because she strove to be the best she could. Mother Teresa was a missionary and a Catholic nun. She never gave up and never disappointed anyone. She had confidence, faith and hope which helped her to guide her and help others on the way of her life journey. She cared and treated others with respect and she had determination and perseverance in herself.
