"The poor do not need our compassion or our pity; they need our help. What they give to us is more than what we give to them."Well, CCD for me starts tomorrow. Oh, wait, I am dating myself. I should probably say that "Religious Education" or "Faith Formation" will begin tomorrow. I've been teaching Religious Education for over 25 years now! I've taught at every grade level. I'll be teaching 5th grade this year which is pretty neat because I'll have some of my fourth-graders from last year. I'm looking forward to seeing some familiar faces, greeting new ones and starting a new school year with the kids. It should be fun and rewarding, please God!
To get ready for it, my co-teacher and I met before the Blessed Sacrament a couple of weeks ago and prayed a decade of the Rosary together for the upcoming Religious Education year. We then met for over an hour or so (it was meant to be a shorter time but we enjoyed it so much!) to discuss the year ahead and catch up too. It was a blessed time.
How's your Religious Education going in your homeschooling environment or at your parish? Are you about to begin? What plans do you have to get the kids excited this year? I hope you'll share in the comment box below. I'd love to hear. Or, feel free to ask any questions you might have about teaching or Faith Formation.
God bless!
