Dear Parents,
In this edition of Faithlinks you will find home lesson plans to guide you through the chapter your child will be covering this week.
All of the Faithlinks emails are also on the St. Odilia website on the Elementary Family Faith page so you can go back to them when you are ready.
November is just around the corner and we look ahead to the feasts of All Saints and All Souls Day. Your children will want to know about these special days in our church year and may ask about the origins of Halloween as well so I've included some good information on those topics this week. 


Our next Family Faith gathering at St. Odilia is November 7. Please remind your children to bring their books with them to class with the chapter reviews for the assigned chapters completed. 

October Assignments due in November:
  • Students in Grades 1, 3, 4 and 5 will be asked to turn in their chapter reviews for chapters 2 and 3. 
  • Second graders should bring their Reconciliation books and should have completed chapters 1-3, pages 1-48.
  • Kindergarten students will have completed 4 chapters by November 1.
  • The children will receive Bag Tags for each chapter when they bring their completed chapters back to What Are Bag Tags????

Other notes:
We need a group of parents willing to work with me to help plan the Family Service Evening in late January. It involves attending a meeting, but most of the preparation can be done at home anytime. Email me if you can help

Blessings to you and your family as you continue growing in faith together!
