We are special:

“It is what gives us dignity as human beings”

Intellect- enables us to think, reason out, draw a conclusion, make plans.

3 Goals Of Man:

1. Know
2. Love GOD through loving and serving our fellow human beings and
3. Serve God’s other creation

God-> breathed-> Dust-> Man/Woman

Why did God create man?
 Companionship
 Help
 Love
 Procreate
 Stewardship

Father

Holy Spirit Holy Trinity = Community of Love

Son

 We belong to a community of people wherever we are

 No individual person can live or grow alone

It is God who:
 - Created us and we are created in his image and likeness
- To relate with others and with God

 Man and woman are equal in dignity but they differ in their role/function that’s why they need each
other. They complement and they become complete in union with one another

As social beings, we are expected to:

 Treat each other equally

 Respect the right of other people
 Be sensitive to the needs of our neighbors
 Show good example all the time

We are stewards of God’s creation:

- God supplies man with whatever he needs

- He is the creator of all things

Mission

- To be the Stewards of his creation

- To help him carry out the plan of perfecting the world
- We are called to protect and preserve the creations of God and our own life too.

 Pray and Ask God if you need him
