Parent Partnership

We recognize that parents are the primary religious educators for their children.  We support parents by offering a strong religious education program for children, adults and families.

We ask that you support your children by bringing them to church school as often and as consistently as possible for your family.  Children learn better and form closer ties with their peers when they are "regulars".

Visit our classrooms and introduce yourself to our youth.  Ask questions.  Talk about our faith during the week.

Please contact our Director of Religious Education, Regan Batuello, with any questions or concerns about our RE programs.

Greetings from the basement.  This month I had a difficult time writing this.  Part of the reason is that we’re in the “finishing up” part of the year, those weeks when time is slipping by and there’s still much to accomplish.  We know it will all get done, even though it doesn’t seem possible.  We’ve seen that miracle occur year after year and know that somehow the magic will happen again this time.

It’s been a long year.  Some of it has been hard and distressing.  Much of it has been expansive and good.  Through all the “growing pains,” the one constant joy has been the kids.  I want to take this time to thank the parents of this remarkable group of young people for lending them to us for an hour a week.  To be chosen to guide a young person’s spiritual growth is a sacred trust.  Thank you.

A date to put on your calendar is June 14^th.  This will be the church service where the “Coming of Age” youth will present their end-of-year projects and we will celebrate the transition of our two graduating seniors from youth to young adult. After the church service, everyone is invited to the Batuello house for our annual end-of-year party.  Bring your bathing suit.  All are welcome.

Love,

Regan
