CCD TEACHER PROFILE
My name is Lydia Bolden and I teach RCIC-B. I team teach RCIC in room number
10.
I have been teaching for 5 years and I am a mother of 2 and grandmother of 4.
I
usually attend the 5pm mass �Go into the whole and proclaim the good
news.�
(Mark 16:15). I work with the RCIC program and CCD because
it affords me the
opportunity to impact the spiritual development of children. The process helps
me to grow spiritually and deepens my faith in God. It is a great feeling when
the
candidates and catechumens develop an awareness and understanding of the Bible.
It
is amazing when they begin recognizing God�s graces and blessings in their
lives,
families and communities. When the children express their faith in God the
creator,
it is a joyful experience to hear them proclaiming
My goal for the RCIC class this
year is that
the candidates and catechumens will grow in wisdom to make the
right choices
(behavioral changes) as they grow spiritually.
This weekend we
will be distributing the parish raffle tickets before and after each
mass. The
drawing will be on November 16, 2003 at the Sweet Sale Fundraiser.
Three prizes will
be awarded: First prize - $1,000; Second prize -
$500; and
Third prize
- $250.We are asking each family to sell a minimum of 25 raffle
tickets.
Additional tickets
can be obtained from the Parish Office. We have 25,000 tickets to
sell. If we sell
all our tickets, the parish can net $23,250.00. Please turn in the ticket
stubs with your
donation to the Parish Office or you may place them in an envelope and
drop it in the
offertory collection. On the weekend of November 8th and 9th
there will
be sign up
sheets for donations to the Sweet Sale. Please start thinking of the
item/items
you would like to donate. If everyone makes a donation our profit will
be 100%. We will
