The Catechesis of the Good Shepherd is a wonderful program, which we have the blessing and benefit of at our parish! CGS is an approach to the religious formation of children rooted in the Bible, the Liturgy of the Church, and the educational principles of Maria Montessori. Children gather in an “atrium,” a room prepared for the, which contains simple yet beautiful materials they use to help them absorb the most essential proclamations of the Christian faith. If you are interested in involving your children, keep your eyes on the bulletin for sign-ups in the spring.
Yet, as Joseph Joubert said, "To teach is to learn twice."
Being able to share our faith with our children not only benefits them... it also benefits, edifies, and strengthens our own faith!
Are you interested in becoming a CGS teacher? With devoted parishioners to help this program grow, perhaps someday we could offer Level 2 of the wonderful CGS program! But first you must take Part 1 of a 2-part catechist training course in Clinton, MA (July 7-12, 2014... Part 2 to take place July 2015). The cost of Part 1 of the course is $200. For more information, please click the sign up sheet below, and contact Kateryna Cuddeback at 617-504-3028 or kcuddeb [at] gmail.com.
