We call it "School of Christian Living." You might know it as "Catechism Classes." Your 7-year-old will probably just call it "that Sunday thing..."

Whatever the name, it's really just one thing: sharing Jesus with kids — lessons that (hopefully!) stick with them for life!

Today, August 15th, we celebrate the Solemnity of the Assumption of the Blessed Virgin Mary, honoring the fact that Mary's body and soul were taken up into Heaven.

It's a day to reflect on faith, hope, and the promise of eternal life. However you're celebrating - whether at Mass, with family, or in quiet prayer - may this day bring you peace and blessings. 🙏✨

"Blessed are you among women, and blessed is the fruit of your womb." — Luke 1:42
