OCTOBER NEWSLETTER 

  Grade 2 CCD  

October is the month of the rosary. Please demonstrate this beautiful  devotion to Our Lady! We will concentrate on the Sign of the Cross, Our Father, Hail Mary, and Glory Be in class. Children will be tested on prayers, so please practice at home! 

Important Dates 

 October 8: Rosary Assembly (during CCD time)  

October 22, 8 AM: Family Mass followed by CCD class. Children will sit with their classmates. Each child will be asked to bring a non- perishable food item for the Elysburg Food Pantry. Children will carry up their donations during the Offeratory. 

CLASS NOTES 

 The sacrament of Baptism will be studied in chapter 3 later this month. Your child will enjoy listening to stories about his/her own baptism. Show pictures of the special day, and pull out the Baptismal candle and white robe. This will help with understanding! 

The children have been highlighting important facts in their books. Please review these frequently together.  

HOMEWORK :  A list of homework assignments will be in your child’s folder 

                      

Many thanks for your commitment to your child’s religious education!

Welcome to 2nd Grade CCD!

“Praise the Lord who is so good; God’s love endures forever.” Psalm 136:1
“ I praise you, so wonderfully you made me; wonderful are your works!” Psalm 139:14

My name is Mrs. Paula Swartz and I am honored to be your child’s religious education teacher! It is a special time for the children, as they will prepare to receive the sacraments of Reconciliation and Holy Eucharist. The following includes information regarding our class.

Here’s hoping for a blessed school year!

The children will learn about the Trinity, Baptism, Reconciliation, Holy Eucharist, the Mass, and Liturgical Year. I also intend to introduce them to some of the saints.
They should already know Sign of the Cross, Our Father, Hail Mary, and Glory Be. They will LEARN and know Act of Contrition, and Mass responses.

It is my hope that they will REGULARLY attend Mass with you!

ATTENDANCE and HOMEWORK

Regular class attendance is very important for your child’s religious education. If possible, please give advance notice of a future absence. Material missed in class, (usually the pages leading up to the posted homework assignment), should be completed with your assistance, along with the homework assignment for that week. Please sign your child’s completed assignments. NOTE: Family Mass is considered a class!

Homework will be a review of the material covered in class. Generally the assignment will be the pages entitled REVIEW and/or GATHER and GO FORTH. Assignments with be listed via www.qmhr.net

Please be enthusiastic about reviewing the material with your child. Your commitment is so important and much appreciated!
