Summary

With St. Kateri as our guide this month in the Be a Saint's Kid's Club, we are encouraged to get outside, enjoy nature and find God's "finger prints" in the beautiful world around us. This week we will explore the created world by:

Marveling at the great gift of creation, and what this gift tells us about our loving Father
Remember how the natural world restores our souls and provides us with a special opportunity to worship God
Embrace our role as STEWARDS of creation, both for those who are poor and vulnerable in our world and for future generation
Learn about animals, their special dignity and how they give glory to God just be being exactly what they were created to be!
Listen to a few incredible stories of saints who had special relationships with animals.

0:00.0	You're listening to
0:07.4	Catholic Sprouts,
0:10.5	the daily podcast for Catholic kids that strives to plant seeds of faith.
0:22.0	Hey there, sprouts. Today is Wednesday, July 21st, 2003. Today is also the feast day of an Italian
0:29.5	saint, St. Aloysius Gonzaga, who lived in the 1500s. St. Aloysius was connected to the Italian royal family. He served at court for a time.
0:41.4	He also was a good obedient son who pursued a military career and secular career because that's
0:48.6	what his father wanted, although his heart really belonged to Jesus.
0:58.1	Eventually, his father relented and he joined the Jesuit order,
1:02.9	where he dedicated himself to serving those who were dying of the plague.
1:08.0	Eventually, Aloysius contracted the plague himself and died at age 24.
1:14.3	However, he was very holy, even at this age and has inspired many people in generations that followed. Now, today we are going to continue to talk about the natural world,
1:20.2	but before we get there, please join me in praying the Holy Spirit prayer. In the name of the
1:25.4	Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, amen. Come, Holy Spirit,
1:31.9	fill the hearts of your faithful and kindle in them the fire of your love. Send forth your
1:38.0	spirit and they shall be created and you shall renew the face of the earth. Oh God, who by the light of the Holy Spirit, did instruct the hearts of the faithful,
1:49.8	grant that by the same Holy Spirit we may be truly wise and ever enjoy his consolations
1:56.9	through Christ, our Lord. Amen.
2:00.2	So we've already talked about how all olive creation is a great gift for us,
2:04.6	how we can really benefit from growing into nature and praising God
2:09.9	and seeing God's fingerprints on olive creation.
2:13.4	Today we are going to talk about an important term that our church uses to describe our relationship
2:20.0	with the created world. And that word is to be stewards. Stewards. So what does this mean? Well, now,
