Kickoff to Virtual Faith Formation: Engaging Young Minds at OLS
In this podcast Tim, the Faith Formation coordinator at Our Lady of the Snows Parish, addresses the shift to a virtual Faith Formation Program, highlighting its benefits and why it's tailored to the needs of today's young students.
I explain the upcoming opening day logistics, emphasizing the importance of regular Mass attendance, and the mandatory meeting for grades six through eight. I then go into the reasoning behind the new interactive and engaging curriculum designed to better capture students' attention amidst modern distractions.
Furthermore, parents are encouraged to participate actively as the primary educators, with catechists acting as guides. Tim also discusses the various layers of the new program, including optional and required podcasts and video content meant to enrich the learning experience. Essential communication methods via text and email are also emphasized to ensure parents stay informed. As the new faith formation program kicks off on September 21st, families are invited to embark on this exciting journey.
