Religious Education
"Religious education is a
matter not only of the head but also of the heart. It is important to learn
as much about Jesus and his Church as possible, but our study should also
help us to know Jesus as our Savior, our Friend, our Lord and our God, to
commit our lives to him, and to be active members of his Church."
--Fr. Oscar Lukefahr,
C.M.

Prayer For One's Family
Father
Sometimes the family
gets me down.
The children are noisy
and the bills pile up.
Relatives and friends make demands
on my time and attention.
I try to keep first things first
and create an atmosphere where Your name
is honored, Your word observed.
But I get tired
and a hard edge creeps into my voice.
Help me to cope with the daily strains
of living in a family.
Help me to sustain a climate in which
my
partner
can grow in Your love,
to encourage my children to develop fully
the talents You have given them
and to make of my family
the community of love
that Your Son came to bring.
Amen.
