Care Corner Photo Journal - Volume 5
Maybe the best part is Tim giving up his lunch hour to teach us the saints. (It's his little sacrifice...his way of giving back.) Or...maybe the best part is how he helps the saints relate to our lives: pray to St. Francis Cabrini to understand God's will, St. Martin de Porres for racism and dog shelters...to St. Thomas Aquinas for learning and to St. Elizabeth Ann Seton for the privilege of going to a Catholic School. Or...maybe it's the questions they ask at the end of each lesson. (Why does she have a cross?...and Why is he holding a book?...and Why are the animals there?) Or...maybe the best part is the Saint Game and how competitive it has become. (St. Gerard team beat the Falcon team today). Or...maybe the best part is how Tim shows us something special each lesson. (Today he showed us a book with St. Thomas Aquinas.) Or maybe it is how he ends each saint lesson with a prayer in Chinese so they learn to appreciate other cultures and languages. Or...maybe the best part is the 28 saints they have already learned and how they are becoming saint experts and how their hearts are becoming closer to Jesus...THAT is the best part. (Actually...the best "fun" part is at the end of the lesson when Tim says goodbye and before hanging up he tells me "I love you." and they think he is talking to them and they yell "love you too." Who am I to tell them any differently?)
