"Because creation comes forth from God's goodness, it shares in that goodness--'and God saw that it was good . . . very good' (Gen 1:4, 10, 12, 18, 21, 31)--for God willed creation as a gift addressed to man, an inheritance destined for and entrusted to him."

If you would like to watch the Pope's entire speech to the World Meeting of Families, here it is.
Some questions came up in class about the angels and about the serpent (the Devil). We will discuss angels in more detail on February 18th, but if you can't wait until then, the article below provides a nice overview of the angels with lots of beautiful pictures.

St. Michael the Archangel, defend us in battle.
Be our defense against the wickedness and snares of the Devil.

thrust into hell Satan, and all the evil spirits,
who prowl about the world seeking the ruin of souls
