Recently, we celebrated Catholic Schools Week in the Diocese. This year’s celebration was conducted virtually, but nevertheless, it afforded me the opportunity to tell students to thank their parents for being committed to Catholic education. And for those who struggle to send their children to Catholic school, I am delighted by all the efforts in the Diocese to make Catholic education possible for those who seek it.
The parishes of the Diocese are doing their best to keep the catechetical faith formation programs on track, but this pandemic has made it difficult. Parents, catechists, and parish ministers are attentive to the need of passing the faith on to the next generation. The Diocese is committed to keeping these formation programs strong and vital.
​
It was my pleasure to initiate a Home School Mass in the Diocese, recognizing that many of our families homeschool their children. It is my goal to assure that faith formation is a part of their curriculum and to provide a support system in the Diocese for these families. Many believe that this pandemic has resulted in a higher number of families who will opt for homeschooling their children in the future. My goal is to challenge the domestic church, the family, to fulfill the responsibility of handing on the faith to the next generation.

Testimonies
¡Confío profundamente en la formación que reciben mis hijos en las actividades de ART Domine! Qué brillante modelo de formación de familia a familia, donde todos en la familia Granados, desde niños hasta adultos, sirven a familias como la mía que asisten a los eventos. Mis hijos siempre se divierten haciendo actividades completamente saludables, sin pantallas incluidas :) ¡Incluso mis hijos tímidos o reservados, que generalmente no hacen amigos cuando van a eventos grupales, son bienvenidos de tal manera que realmente hacen amigos! Y el celo por la fe es solo parte de la vida de los Granados, ¡así que la formación de ART Domine! procede de una profunda convicción interna: se transfiere de corazón a corazón, llegando a los niños a un nivel profundo y duradero. ¡Estoy muy feliz de tener estos campamentos y clubes disponibles para mis hijos!
