FAITH FORMATION UPDATE

Wednesday, Nov. 12, 2025

This week in Faith Formation classes, we will have a special 15-minute lesson for all grades PreK-5th on the Circle of Grace in the Media Center at 6:16 pm. This lesson focuses on helping our young people actively participate in a safe environment for themselves and others. We will begin with this short video to introduce Circle Grace, ask questions, and discuss, then send the students back to their class. We will do the same for grades 6-8 next week, Nov. 12.

**At Home This Week:** Your child brought home an orange slip with an activity to work on together. Please sign it and return it to class the following week (Nov.5) for a chance to enter the drawing (kids love surprises!).

This week, let's do some coloring:
