I’m sure that of all the blessings we share together, as a parish, the ones that come to us through the Faith Formation program are among the greatest. To teach the Faith to a child gets to the heart, not only of what Our Lady and Saint Joseph were for Our Lord, but what Jesus was Himself about when instructing the disciples. So there’s that privilege.

But also, there’s something about having to see and speak about the Faith as simply and as clearly as possible that is purifying for us, as a parish. And in that sense, it’s a good discipline to be about all throughout the year. Bishop Sheen said, “You can be said to know something only when you can teach it to a 5 year-old.” +
