Chapter 4: We Belong to the Catholic Church


This week your child continues to learn about what it means to be a member of the Church. The Second Vatican Council reminded Catholics that by our Baptism we are called to participate actively in the life and ministry of the Church--both in prayer and in service. Here are some things you can do to help your child understand more fully what it means to be part of the people of God.

We Serve Others

Talk together about the Catholic Church as the people of God. Talk about different ways Catholics serve one another in your parish church or in your neighborhood.

The Mass

Ask your child to draw a picture of God's people gathered together at Mass. Encourage your child to pray, sing, be reverent, and well-behaved whenever he or she goes to Mass.
