You're Being Watched!

Last updated on May 11, 2012
This week, I had the opportunity to hang out with some high school students as  we embarked on a  "pilgrimage walk".  We processed through parts of South Regina, with a group of about 70 teenagers, stopping at various points along the way to pray and reflect. We were led by some pretty talented wandering minstrels! Read More

Regina Catholic Schools - Moving in Faith

Last updated on May 8, 2012
The rain did not deter more than 350 students and teachers from the Regina Roman Catholic School Division and their families from attending the third annual Moving in Faith activity held Sunday, May 6. One of the organizers Melanie Nargang, Vice Principal of St. Angela School, said the activity began as a “Walk In Faith,” but three years ago morphed into Moving in Faith by incorporating a race and several other activities located around the Douglas Park track in Wascana Park.

Creating Youth Friendly Parishes

Last updated on April 26, 2012
“Creating a youth friendly parish is not optional,” said Archdiocesan Youth Coordinator Michelle Braden, speaking to a workshop held April 21 in the Chancery Boardroom. Young people often disappear after receiving Confirmation rarely to be seen again in church and that needs to change. Read More

Partnering With Parents

Last updated on April 25, 2012
After reading an article in "Children's Ministry" magazine some time ago entitled "Crazy About Parents" by Henry Zonio, I was really challenged to re-think some things. We who work in ministry to families have all had experiences of frustration with some of the parents we work with! We bemoan what we perceive to be a lack of concern for their children's spiritual development. Their poor choices. Their misguided priorities. We all have those families that we only get to see at Christmas and Easter. Read More

Holy Family Students Return

A week in the Dominican Republic painting what passes for houses and working in the cane fields gave 29 high school students and their chaperones from Estevan, Weyburn, and Radville, an eye opening experience of life in a third world country.

CFI Youth Rally Rosary... Flies

Last updated on April 4, 2012
CATHOLIC FAITH INVESTIGATION YOUTH RALLY They floated a Rosary in the sky. The Hail Mary’s were green, the Our Fathers. Black and the silver cross at the bottom flashed occasionally as the sun glinted off it in a clear blue sky.  Thanks to an extremely rare windless prairie day it went straight up from the O’Neil High School football field for several hundred feet before very slowing drifting off to the east.
