Celebrate Eucharist
Thank you so much for bringing your children to class each week. I know what a struggle this can be. However, many teachers tell me their students are not attending mass on a regular basis. If your life is so busy that you can only get your child to faith formation class and not mass, then I would ask that you take them to mass only. The faith we are teaching them about in class will only mean something if it is nurtured by the Eucharist. Sunday mass is the source and summit of everything we do as Catholics. There is absolutely no better place to be on Sunday than in church-it’s where we figure out who we are and what we are to be-Jesus for the world.
