"Amen, I say to you, this poor widow put in more."

On Sunday, Nov. 11, 2012, the 32nd Sunday in Ordinary Time, we will hear another inspiring witness of faith. This time by the poor widow in Mark 12:38 -44. From her poverty, she gave all that she had. More than the generosity of her heart, what she did was, in fact, a perfect act of faith. Her trust in God was evident in her full abandonment of herself. Our Discussion Questions will guide your Sunday Bible Study with family, friends and church groups.

We are also reminded that giving of oneself totally is not just giving something we have over, having looked after our own needs. For someone who is well-off, it is relatively easy to contribute something to worthwhile causes like famine relief or helping the education of children in poorer countries etc., and that is very good indeed. We also may find it easy to give time and attention to the family but much more difficult to give ourselves fully. So the call to us as Christians is not only to give something but also to give ourselves.

You will find all of the Sunday homilies we have compiled for you this week at this link. You can also read our full coverage of this week's Catholic world by clicking here. We will be back next week with our regular edition of your Catholic Living Today.

Another eventful week in our Catholic World. Have a great and blessed new week.

Keep the Faith. Peace.
