February 23-24, 2013

I'm so proud of my daughter. She is in the seventh grade at the zone-middle school and she and I have been working on completing her Confirmation requirements for her final year at the Saturday religious education program thru Sacred Heart of Mary School of Religion.

This has involved going to Mass each week and volunteering for Catholic agencies. This weekend she started her work at an assisted living facility. The coordinator and workers there have been so supportive of her efforts. I get to look on as chaperone, only stepping in once and awhile to give Grace some pointers. She is really the right age for learning job skills and the the value of devoting your time, energies, and gifts to service. I really liked the way that she was mindful of the needs and abilities of the senior citizens there. She has instincts! Yay!
