In a previous post we explored ways for catechists to celebrate All Saints Day (October 12, 2018). In this post are links that assist parents in explaining and celebrating this holiday. This is a good opportunity to renew our own understanding of All Saints' and All Souls' Days. As we focus on Saints and those who have died, we help our young learners understand the resurrection and the hope that Jesus offers us. |
