It an experience where there is awholesome communication for all catechist, to of one mind,united in spirit an ideals, necessary for our spiritual growth as catechist.Honestly,I am so proud of being a catechist more than I am proud of my being a teacher-nurse-midwife.It is a feeling beyond all our human understanding,for God”s ways are not mans ways.Yes, I can speak a little of Chinese,And wow, what a wonderful idea to translate God”s words to languages all over the world.

Thank you so much for your wonderful ideas and help. I teach second grade with children who are receiving their Reconciliation and Holy Communion this year, so it is a challenge. If you have any suggestions for second grade, I would so very much appreciate it. This week I’m using your “Signs” to lead into my Sacraments lesson while reviewing the Trinity, which is really hard for second graders
Thanks, Charlotte. Let me know what kind of specific help you’re looking for and we can put the word out to the 2nd grade catechists out there who can share their ideas!
