How will you share your knowledge of the Catholic faith during the upcoming summer months?
My knowledge on the Catholic faith should be shared all the time, but especially in the summer. During summer, people usually forget our main goal as Catholics is to live a good, holy life to get into heaven with God. We, as Catholics, strive to meet God in heaven and have eternal life with him. To do this, we must have faith and believe in God the Father. Personally, I am helping share my knowledge by helping at Bible camps near me. These camps help teach children about our faith using fun activities. These activities commonly are about a Bible story or common beliefs. Vacation Bible School is usually a week long, giving kids the opportunity to learn while they play with other kids. This lets me share my knowledge with children so that they can be the best person of faith they can be. Many kids do not make the church a priority in their lives. This can help them connect to others and understand why it is so important to make God a priority. I want to grow as a role model for the next generation. In the upcoming summer months, I will also lead the school dance team in prayer before practices and dance camp. This will help bring the members of the dance team’s focus back on religion. I can share my knowledge I have learned in my religion classes with the members of the team that are younger than me. Hopefully, with our prayers, we will have a fun and safe football season. Another thing I plan to do is to read at Mass. I hope to make it to every Sunday Mass and read at as many services as possible. By doing this, I can help clearly share the words of God in the Bible. These words, shared with others, can change lives. Overall, I will be sharing my knowledge of the Catholic faith in many ways this summer. BC
