Un Nuevo Año

Este fin de semana empezaremos nuestros programas de Educación Religiosa. Los estudiantes que se preparan para su Primera Comunión estan ansiosos de continuar su viaje todos los domingos por la mañana, entre las dos misas. Ellos dis-frutan su tiempo con sus maestos mientras aprenden de su libro de trabajo, juegos, y trabajos manuales. Ellos ta mbién aprenden de ustedes, la co-munidad de San Pedro, al verlos amar a Jesús y a su presencia en la Eucaristía. Los jóvenes que harán su Confirmación también reanudarán sus clases, tratando de comprender los Sac-ramentos y los Dones del Espíritu Santo. Los jóvenes se reúnen todos los sábados por la tarde para rezar, aprender acerca de los santos y crecer en su Católi-cismo. Ellos tambiún asisten juntos a la misa después de su clase. Para algunos fue la primera vez que lo hici-eron en inglés. El grupo de RICA es una mezcla de Jóvenes y adultos en busca de su bautizo, Primera Comunión, y Confir-mación. Ellos han tenido varias personas que les han venido a hablar acerca de varios aspectos de la fé Católica. Algunos feligreses se han unido a nosotros en nuestro caminar hacia la Pascua de Resurrección y han compartido la riqueza de su sabiduría, convirtiendose en modelos de nuestos principiantes.

A New Year!

This weekend we start back with our Religious Educa-tion programs. The students preparing for First Com-munion are eager to continue their journey on Sunday mornings between the two Masses. They enjoy their time with their teachers as they learn through book-work, games, and crafts. They also learn from you, the community of St. Peter, as they see how you love the Lord and cherish his presence in the Sacrament of the Eucharist. The Confirmandi also resume their classes, delving deeper into understanding the sacraments and the Gifts of the Holy Spirit. The teens gather each Saturday af-ternoon to pray together, learn about saints, and grow in their Catholic identity. They also attend Mass together following class. For some it was their first time to do so in English. The RCIA group is a wonderful mix of teens and adults seeking baptism, Holy Communion, and Confirma-tion. They have had a series of guest speakers who pre-sent aspects of our Catholic faith. Parishioners have joined us on the journey to Easter and shared the rich-ness of their faith, becoming models for our beginners.
