Welcome!

My Dear Ascension Catechists,

     I know some of you had struggles posting before and lost your comments in cyberspace. You will need to always check how you are posting, even if it's anonymously or your comment will not go through. Please see photo:


 
      I hope and pray you find this site useful as a tool for  dialoguing about our ministry, sharing ideas, and of course, discussing our book for the year. During the 2013-2014 school year, Ascension catechists will be reading Confessions of a Mega Church Pastor by Allen Hunt. If you don't have time to read or just prefer listening to a speaker, you can download a talk by Allen Hunt based on this book at Lighthouse Catholic Media or purchase a CD of the talk. Both are less than $5. More copies of the book may be purchased through the Dynamic Catholic Institute.

     Just a few basics for our discussion here:

• Keep it civil. It can still be lively and spark debate, but use respectful language and such, especially when we discuss "hot button" issues.
• I have the authority to delete posts and will do so only if it is necessary due to language, insensitivity, etc. 
• I won't make this a "locked" blog that you have to join to post. This will give you the freedom to post anonymously, if you choose.
• If you don't post anonymously, please sign each comment with your name (first is sufficient), day you teach, and which grade you teach. This will help us better understand your point of view and give suggestions when we discuss how to share topics in the classrom. (Ex: Mary, Sundays, 3rd grade)

     I am so excited to offer this! I have invited our RE Board members to participate as well. SPRED Catechists will be joining us as well!!

God bless,
Kathleen
