End of Sac Prep and Faith Formation

This preparation has not been the best. I personally feel that the parish program is a joke. That being said I do want to honor our Pastor and prepare the children according to the guidelines that the parish sets before us. We finished out final Sac Prep class on Sunday. I grew very angry when the director instructed the children how to receive communion on their hands and didn't even mention tongue. That is my hang up, I know. It does upset me.
Then onto our Faith Formation class. I think again that the program is a waste of time. We go to the class just during 2Nd grade year and I am not even sure it is worth that. We had teachers drop out, kids drop out and all kinds of crazy stuff. This small group is all that is left from our original class.
Just one boy with these four girls. They have a lot to be proud of. The put up with all kinds of adult drama to make it each week and do their best to prepare.
I am so happy that I was blessed to be a little part in their journey. Princess and Bagel have made good friends and have grown so much in their faith.
Please pray for these special little ones as they end their official study and begin to intensely prepare with their parents to receive Our Lord, Body, Blood, Soul, Divinity all wrapped up in one little piece of bread or drop of wine.

The parents are so thankful that the class has come to an end so that we can look forward to their special day. It is a great time for all involved. God Bless this special little group.
