Crystal Pedro is the winner of the ‘Respect for Life’ design logo competition. The following is Crystal’s explanation of her winning logo: “The seed denotes the idea of conception. The tree without leaves illustrates old age and natural death. The praying hands represent a sign of respect and protection of life from conception to natural death and a symbol of obedience, submission, sincerity and repentance.
The Christian Cross is a representation of Christianity being the burial, the resurrection and ascension of Jesus Christ into heaven. Both the hand and Cross can also symbolize the Church.  The green colour is the sign of life and growth. Represents Ordinary Time.  The red wording represents the sacrificial blood of Our Lord and Saviour, Jesus Christ.”

Use your gifts to build the common good

by Leela Ramdeen, Chair, CCSJ

With the rise of secularism, sadly, many fail to acknowledge the fact, as Pope Benedict XVI reminds us in Charity in Truth, that all that we have is “gift” from God.

We live in a world in which individualism, selfishness, greed and materialism lead many to believe that what is important in this life is storing up wealth here on earth and keeping it all so that they can have a good time – like the rich man in today’s Gospel (Luke 12:13-21) who plans to build bigger barns to store up his “treasures” here on earth and then “take things easy, eat, drink, have a good time”.
