“Let the children come to me; . . . for the kingdom of God belongs to such as these.”
~ Mark 10:13-16
As the United States Catholic Bishops revealed in the pastoral document To Teach as Jesus Did,
|
“Catholic education is an expression of the mission entrusted by Jesus to the Church He founded. Through education the Church seeks to prepare its members to proclaim the Good News and to translate this proclamation into action."
This is a call for transformation within oneself and the society around.
