           Happy Fourth of July to All of Our Children’s Ministry Families!

We are blessed to have outstanding, experienced catechists lined up for nearly all of our grades, but we
                could use a few more! Some of the many benefits of teaching include:
                                • Enjoying the children in the parish
                  • Learning about the faith through preparation and presentation
                         • Sharing the faith with the children and families
            • Meeting a wonderful group of people who also are learning and growing —
                                   and those are other catechists
       • Getting involved in the wonders of parish life, which is fun, rewarding and never dull!
                                 • Giving back, paying it forward!
   Please contact Kathy Handelman at khandelman@divinemercynorthshore.org for information.
