Family Day is coming up on February 15. It was introduced in Ontario in 2008. The main reason for introducing it was to give Ontarians a day off work during the long period from New Year's Day until Good Friday. As Christian parents, why not take advantage of this holiday and use the day to spend it together with our children? I would suggest celebrating the day using these words from Pope Benedict’s encyclical, Caritas in Veritate, as a theme:

“Openness to life is at the centre of true development. When a society moves towards the denial or suppression of life, it ends up no longer finding the necessary motivation and energy to strive for man's true good.

The Ontario government ministry is proposing a Grade 11 gender course that goes against Catholic teaching on sexuality.

1 Timothy 2:1-5
First of all, then, I urge that supplications, prayers, intercessions, and thanksgivings should be made for everyone, for kings and all who are in high positions, so that we may lead a quiet and peaceable life in all godliness and dignity. This is right and is acceptable in the sight of God our Saviour, who desires everyone to be saved and to come to the knowledge of the truth.
