Get up! Wake up! Arise!

If we cannot change our mind, then either we might be too stubborn, or we might be right...

It's true that whether a person is open-minded has nothing to do with which party a person belongs; or what religious beliefs we may hold.

Are we able to listen and think critically?

Are we able to carry on a civilized dialogue?

Do we need to tame our anger management skills?

Catechists' Essentials

    Come Holy Spirit! Come by means of the most powerful intercession of Immaculate Heart of Mary, Your well-beloved spouse.
     
As the new Coordinator of Religious Education (CRE) at Rusk County Catholic Community, I rely on your prayers and guidance of our Pastoral Administrator Father Gene Murphy and his pastoral team

Please follow our Twitter (@RuskCRE) for updates on important Catechetical moments, events, and opportunities, appropriate for this Year of Faith (Oct 11, 2012 - Nov 24, 2013) and New Evangelization.  May we grow deeper in faith through our creative efforts to know, love, and serve Him. Amen.
