August 2011 Dear Parents, May the peace of our Lord Jesus Christ together with Mama Mary

be with you! Today, we had an activity and the topic for this month is about PENANCE / FORGIVENESS. The kids learned about the importance of being aware of their actions between good and bad and that they should learn to ask forgiveness from those people whom they have hurt and most especially to God whom they hurt as well. But God is always ready to forgive us because he loves us so much. In this regard, we would like to request to you, our dear parents, to help us teach them the learnings that they were able to pick up in the talks and activities. Here are some suggestions where you can help your children practice the importance saying sorry: Talk to them You can help your children strengthen the importance of asking forgiveness by pointing out to them in a loving manner the wrong things that they have done. By letting them realize on their own the mistakes that they have committed and let them state the reasons why does it hurt other people and hurt God. Encourage them When you see them try to change the wrong things that they have done, acknowledge it verbally. Tell them that you like that they are trying their best to correct the wrong things that they have done. You encourage them to continue to do the good things that they are doing. Love them Inspite of the wrongdoings that they have committed let them feel that they are still loved. Tell them that you do not like the wrongdoings that they did but you still love them. You make them realize that they are not really bad, its the sin that is bad so that is the reason that they should try to not to do it again. There are many ways of how we could support our children in living a righteous life. We hope and pray that our little ways of bringing our children to God through these activities will help them become a good Christian. May we continue to work together in bringing Gods plan to your children. May our Strong God continue to bless you and your family.

Agosto 2011 Mga minamahal naming mga magulang, Ang kapayapaan ng Panginoon, kasama ng ating Inang Maria, ay sumainyo! Ngayong araw na ito, kami ay nagkaroon ng mga aktibidad na tumalakay sa paksa sa buwang ito, na nagpapatungkol sa pangungumpisal/pagpapatawad. Kanilang naunawaan ang kahalagahan ng pagkakaroon ng kamalayan ukol sa kanilang mga aksyon, kung ito ba ay mabuti o masama, at ang kahalagahan ng paghingi ng kapatawaran mula sa taong kanilang nasaktan at lalot higit sa lahat ay sa Panginoong Diyos na kanila ring nasaktan. Ang Panginoony laging handang magpatawad, sapagkat tayot Kanyang minamahal. Sa alang ito, nais naming humiling sa inyo, mga minamahal naming magulang, na gabayan sila upang mas higit nilang maunawaan ang kanilang nalaman sa araw na ito. Narito ang ilang halimbawa/mungkahi na maaring makatulong sa inyo upang mas higit na maunawaan ng inyong anak ang kahalagahan ng pag hingi ng kapatawaran: Makipag-usap sa Kanila Maari mong matulungan ang iyong anak na maunawaan ang kahalagahan ng paghingi ng tawad sa isang mapagmahal na pagpapaliwanag sa kanila kung bakit mali ang kanilang ginawa. Sa pamamgitan nito , ay sasagi sa kanilang kamalayan ang mga maling nagawa at higit nilang mauunawaan kung paano nila nasaktan ang ibang tao at ang Diyos. Suportahan sila. Kapag nakita nating sinusubukan nilang baguhin ang maling nagawa nila, atin silang himukin na ipagpatuloy ang kanilang ginagawa. Ipaalam sa kanila na itoy maganda at kayoy natutuwa sa kanyang ipinakikitang pagbabago. Mahalin Sila Sa kabila ng mga maling nagawa nila, iparamdam pa rin sa kanila na mahal ninyo sila. Sabihin sa kanila na hindi ninyo nagustuhan ang kanyang inasal, pero sa kabila nuon ay mahal mo pa rin sya. Ipaunawa sa kanila na hindi sila ang masama, kung hindi ang kasalanang ginawa nila, kaya dapat lamang na nila itong ulitin at kanilana itong baguhin. Maraming ibat ibang pamamaraan kung paano natin masusuportahan at matutulungan ang inyong mga anak na mamuhay ng matuwid. Kamiy umaasat nananalangin na ang ating mga maliliit na pamamaraan upang dalhin sila sa isang buhay na matuwid, ay makatulong sa kanila upang maging isang mabuting Kristyano.
