Making Our Faith “Simple-Yet-Not-Simplistic”
No doubt you are familiar with the “…for Dummies” series of books—instructional books designed to take complex topics and present them in a non-intimidating format for readers who are new to the subject. Ironically, the reason that these books sell so well is that readers know that the author will not treat them like dummies but rather as an apprentice in need of a mentor.

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
Again, THANK YOU and please keep them coming.
