Catholic Schools Week -
1.
We still need volunteers
for our classroom to help with Friday’s
scavenger hunt.
2.
For Catholic Schools
Week, we are also participating in a
service project called Kemi’s Friends. We
are collecting children’s clothes to go to
Africa for street children. Used spring,
summer, and fall clothes in good condition
are being accepted.
3.
The theme for Catholic
School Week this year is “Faith,
Academics, Service.” These concepts have
their roots in the home. Please spend a
few minutes each night this week talking
about your family’s faith. Below are some
discussion questions to help get the
conversation started.
Monday
– Discuss celebrations of the sacraments
that your family has celebrated –
baptisms, weddings. Has anyone in your
family taken the vow of holy orders? Has
anyone had the anointing of the sick?
Tuesday
– Talk about a time that God really spoke
to you. Did you hear God’s voice through
another person, in nature, directly?
Wednesday
– Is there a special Bible verse or
passage that is special to your family?
Why is it special? Consider writing it
down to bring to school to put on your
faith poster.
In school on Thursday, each third
grader will be asked to put together
poster about their faith. Hopefully,
your discussions at home will help them to
make a truly special representation of the
faith that they’ve learned at home and at
St. Edward. You may send in special items
for your child to have for Thursday to add
to their poster – photographs of your
family, a Bible verse, special markers
they like to use, etc. You do not have to
send anything in unless you want to.
There will be supplies in the class.
