Opening Mass 開學感恩祭

Date: 18/10/2019

Our school’s Opening Mass was held on 20 September and it was celebrated by Rev. Fr. Ignatius Lo.

 

Father Lo shared the story of a young fisherman while preaching. Although this young man was poor, he felt satisfied. However, an unexpected wealth resulted in his greed, and he began to care only about money and become unhappy. The story reminded us that we should treasure the things we have. Our lives become miserable when we are overwhelmed by desires. Therefore we should learn to be grateful. 

 

Father Lo hoped that students could pursue justice, devoutness, faith, love, perseverance and goodness in this new academic year. We need to practice the teachings of the God to enrich our lives.

 

At the final stage of the Mass, the new committee of Catholic Society received the investiture. Each committee member was blessed by Fr. Lo and was given key rings to signify their commitment to both evangelic duty and service to the school.

 

本校於九月二十日假學校禮堂舉行開學感恩祭,由羅敬業神父主禮。

 

羅神父在講道時分享了一個年輕漁夫的故事:這名年輕人雖然貧窮,但他卻感到很快樂。在一次意外得到的錢財後卻引發起貪慾,令他開始只顧著計算自己的財富,因而變得不快樂。從漁夫的故事啟發「知足常樂」的道理,我們生活原是沒有煩惱的,但當內心充滿慾望時會令人只計較得失,貪求更多便會感到痛苦,因此我們應學懂感恩知足。

 

羅神父冀望學生於新學年分清何謂「需要」和「想要」,因為物質只是短暫的,相反,美好的價值是來自天主,卻是永恆的。為此我們需要追求正義、虔敬、信德、愛德、堅忍和良善,一生追求真、善、美的事物,以豐富我們的生命。

 

臨近感恩祭尾聲時,羅神父為天主教同學會新一屆幹事們進行降福派遣,幹事們從神父手中接過鎖匙扣,象徵願意肩負宣揚福音、服務學校的使命,以回應校訓「仁愛.服務」的精神。
