A Teacher's Prayer
Dear Church School Directors,
A dream is coming true for me. The first book of the revised series, The Way, The Truth, and The Life is being printed, and God willing, will soon be available. It is in the O.C.E.C. catalog as a ninth grade book, but it can be used with eighth graders if you don’t have a high school. It is not intended for students below grade eight.
Many teachers have asked if they can begin preparing their students for the program by focussing on certain lessons in the books for lower grades. At this time we are working on a project that will help you do that.
The prayer for your teachers, below, is the one that we have prayed as we worked on the new book. It is from St. Innocent, Apostle to America. The series has been dedicated to him, as he translated the Bible into Aleut and thus was the first to catechize in the new world. It can be printed on decorative-border paper and framed, if you wish.
Please give my greetings to your teachers, and recall to them the words of Jesus, “I have come that they may have life, and life abundantly” (John 10:10). We are offering our students the words of eternal life. May God bless our efforts,
In Christ,
Carole A. Buleza
