From the Catholic diocese where the sun never sets...I'm a lifelong Catholic with 17 years as a military spouse. Trying to grow Catholic faith one base at a time! Frequent deployments, separation from extended family and no older retiree volunteers are some of the many challenges we face being in the military and being active Catholics. I hope to share ideas to help inspire and motivate other Catholics in the military community.

Large Group RE activities
I have a vision of having large group activities that help instill the topics we are learning throughout our RE while bringing families together for formation AND giving teachers a night off from lesson planning. I am already very familiar with Saint Night (usually the Wednesday before Halloween) and its success with students. Students dress as their favorite saint then take turns announcing which saint they chose to dress as and something about their saint(if they can remember). We have done create an advent wreath as a family and we tried the living rosary and will hopefully have more success with that this year (thank you Jared Dees). However, I am looking for more ideas. We will have to do a Lent Night but I can't think of anything else. If you have any ideas please post them!
