Building a community

As individuals we belong to many communities-- whether its our classmates at school, our neighborhoods or our own families.

But what does it mean to be a member of our church family? In chapter 1, we discussed our role as the People of God.

We talked about how we are called to care for other people, to pray together and to attend Mass weekly to celebrate Jesus.

• Volunteering with the family for a few hours or participating in a charity walk is a great way to build your community
• Do you have old, gently used toys? How about donating them to charity organizations along with clothes your children have outgrown

Reminders: If you haven't already done so, please take a minute to fill out our survey that was sent home during the first week of class.

For Next Week:
We're going to talk about the first Sacrament most of us receive as infants: Baptism!
