The context for our teaching is one of appreciation for different learning styles and needs of the students. Our volunteer teachers are ready and willing to work with parents to provide a learning environment that will be comfortable for students who may need attention in a particular area. We view our ministry as a mandate to model Christian virtues of faith, hope, love, and respect in dealing with all members of the religious education community: faculty, support staff, and families. May God be with us and help us, parents and parishes, as we make this a reality.
