Adult Enrichment: Handing On The Faith To Our Children

These are some of the tips that Chris provided to pass on the faith to our children:

1. Being intentional about the faith we pass on.  It is important to construct a foundation for the faith.
2. Being the faith that we want to see in our children.  Commitment to being a light in a world of darkness.
3. Embracing Traditions.  Rescuing our traditions in an increasingly secular world.  These traditions can include stations of the cross, no meat during Lent, going to confession, Holy Thursday Mass, etc.
4. Giving voice to our children's ideas of faith and values.  Recognizing the power in our children's view of our faith.
5. Giving the kids the opportunity to experience faith beyond the Church doors.  Service in the community as a window into our faith.
6. What you can do as a parish community - guiding the parish to nuture the seeds of faith in our children.
