Tika,Pono,Aroha

We have been learning about how Jesus respected the tapu (sacredness) of people.

Jesus proclaimed the kingdom of God to the Samaritan woman at the well when he asked for some water but the woman said we are not allowed to talk to each other. He was a Jew and she was a Samaritan and they were enemies in those days. But Jesus did. He shows us aroha (love and compassion) and pono (being true to what you believe in) and tika (doing the right thing). He wasn't afraid and showed us an example of what we can do and how we can treat people.

I show Aroha when I help mum with anything.

I show Pono when I make good choices.

I show Tika when I do something is right.
