FAITH AT HOME Club 56 – May 9 & 10
We hope all the Mothers out there feel special and that their loved ones helped to make it so!
May we also celebrate all the non-traditional Moms in this world!
And, honor all the Mothers and Grandmothers we may have lost.
Exploring Spiritual Practices Together
Over the month of May we encourage families to explore different types of Spiritual Practices together.
Here is an introduction video to Spiritual Practices
(in case you didn’t watch it last week):
Week 2: Practicing Gratefulness
Personal Reflection Focus:
Once you have practiced Gratefulness, take a moment, be silent and let your thoughts focus on the experience.
Take a big deep breath in and out- slowly and peacefully.
Reflection Questions to Discuss or Journal about:
- What did you choose to be grateful about and why?
- How easy was it?
- What kind of difference did it make?
- How did this exercise make you feel?
We Want to Hear from You!
(Text us!)
What are some of the creative ways you want to express yourself with Club 56? Text us some of your ideas for fun art projects or interactive games and activities! Leah is organizing this for us: 651-472-4868.
Annual Letter to Self (Calling all 6th Graders)
During the 10th Grade Confirmation Retreat you will receive a letter you wrote to yourself in the 6th Grade. Now is the time to write that letter! 5th Graders, please use this as a journaling exercise and just have fun with it!
Let us know when it is completed so we don’t call and bug you! 😉 Please Mail it to Kyle at 3312 Silver Lake Rd NE, St Anthony, MN 55418, or hold onto it and bring it to church in the future.
In your letter you can:
- Remind yourself why your faith is important to you.
- Tell yourself what you have learned from these strange times and how it can help you to stay positive.
- Remind yourself of some of your goals for the future.
- Give yourself some advice on making the most of life and enjoying it!
- End with a blessing or prayer.
Deuteronomy 6, 5-7: “5 Love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your strength. 6 These commandments that I give you today are to be on your hearts. 7 Impress them on your children. Talk about them when you sit at home and when you walk along the road, when you lie down and when you get up.”
