B.  Reminders  3.  GOF Renew   Reflect    Respond Generations of Faith 2020/21   Below is the Word Cloud of names or titles of Jesus in the shape of a Christmas tree.  Thank you to all who contributed. Many of the titles in this Word Cloud come from the four young adult parishioners (Christopher, Nneka, David, and Udoka) who shared their favorite names/titles during the panel discussion at the end of the Session Three video Who Is Jesus?

The Christmas tree is thought to originate with Saint Boniface in the eighth century during his missionary travels in Germany. According to his teachings, the tree signifies peace and points toward heaven. Its constant greenness symbolizes everlasting life. (The Catholic Source Book p.43)   To view the video Who is Jesus?
