Dedication of the Lateran Basilica
Use some blessed water and sprinkle the children. Aa each person feels the droplets of water fall on them they make the sign of the cross. This reminds us of the commitment made for us at our baptism.

A Holy Place
OBJECTS: Picture of the Jewish temple at the time of Jesus and photos of your own parish church.
When Jesus lived on earth he went to the temple. The temple was a very holy place where people worshipped God. In the temple he “found in the temple those who sold oxen, sheep, and doves” (2:14). He drove the people and the animals out of the temple.
Why do you think he did that? The Bible tells us that he said, “Take these things out of here! Don’t make my Father’s house a marketplace!” (2:16). He wanted the people to respect the temple as a place where God is honored.
Our church can be thought of in that way; as a place where God is honored. What are some of the ways we can show respect for our church? Yes, by keeping it clean. We respect the church by making sure it is not damaged in anyway. We respect the church by behaving in a way that pleases God.
