Gospel Mark 12:38-44

In the course of his teaching Jesus said to the crowds, “Beware of the scribes, who like to go around in long robes and accept greetings in the marketplaces, seats of honor in synagogues, and places of honor at banquets. They devour the houses of widows and, as a pretext recite lengthy prayers. They will receive a very severe condemnation.”
He sat down opposite the treasury and observed how the crowd put money into the treasury. Many rich people put in large sums. A poor widow also came and put in two small coins worth a few cents. Calling his disciples to himself, he said to them, “Amen, I say to you, this poor widow put in more than all the other contributors to the treasury. For they have all contributed from their surplus wealth, but she, from her poverty, has contributed all she had, her whole livelihood.”

The joint Spoken Word initiative of CCSJ and the Youth Commission proved to be a real treat. We say ‘Thanks’ to the 17 young contestants who ‘fired-up’ TCN’s studio on Friday October 30. Each received a Medal of Participation. The three winners were: 1st prize: Michael Logie, Tunapuna; 2nd prize: Shineque Saunders, Princes Town; and 3rd prize: Darrion Narine, St Joseph.

Since the competition was part of ‘Justice, Peace and Community Week’, the theme was: Building inclusive communities.

Michael’s reference to Hebrews 10:24 is noteworthy. Rather than ‘bruising’ each other, “Let us be concerned for each other, to stir a response in love and good works.” CCSJ is seeking to publish the contributions of each contestant. We must acknowledge the talent of our youths.
Here is Michael’s winning contribution:

Gospel Matt 5:1-12a

When Jesus saw the crowds, he went up the mountain, and after he had sat down, his disciples came to him. He began to teach them, saying:
“Blessed are the poor in spirit, for theirs is the Kingdom of heaven.
Blessed are they who mourn, for they will be comforted.
Blessed are the meek, for they will inherit the land.
Blessed are they who hunger and thirst for righteousness, for they will be satisfied.
Blessed are the merciful, for they will be shown mercy.
Blessed are the clean of heart, for they will see God.
Blessed are the peacemakers, for they will be called children of God.
Blessed are they who are persecuted for the sake of righteousness, for theirs is the Kingdom of heaven. Blessed are you when they insult you and persecute you and utter every kind of evil against you falsely because of me. Rejoice and be glad, for your reward will be great in heaven.”
