Message from Jacquie H., Walnut Grove BC

My dream would be that we would have Sunday Schools full of children like there use to be when I was growing up.

My Son married a Roman Catholic girl and my Grand Daughter recently took her first Communion. There were 49 children taking their first Communion, it was a wonderful sight to see. I should add that we don’t live in a large community. I was so impressed with the Teachers and the way the Catachism classes were held.

Maybe there is something to be learned!

Wouldn’t it be lovely if all the parents of children Baptised into our Anglican faith were as diligent as those Roman Catholic parents are by making sure that their children learn everything about thier faith, in a positive way.

The future of our Church is with our children and until we get more young families coming to Church things don’t look so good for the future.

I would also like to add that until we are united in our total acceptance of Gays and Lesbians as full particapants of our Church and give them the same rights as everyone else,the future of our Church is in trouble.

Thank you for allowing me to share my thoughts.
