On the Diocese of St. Cloud's Speaking of Faith podcast, we learn about Catechesis of the Good Shepherd (CGS) from Reyne Alishouse, parishioner at St. Lawrence in Duelm, former catholic school teacher and current homeschool mom and a CGS Level 1 catechist. CGS is a Catholic, Montessori-style, hands-on faith formation held in an "atrium." Reyne explains how the child-centered, quiet space uses Scripture, prayerful "work" and carefully designed materials to help children — ages 3–12 across three levels — encounter Jesus as the Good Shepherd, learn the Mass, parables, and salvation history and develop calmness and deep understanding. With the host, Amber, Reyne discusses parents' growing interest, the need for trained catechists, and an upcoming Level 1 training at St. Mary's Cathedral in St. Cloud, August 10–15. You can find more information about CGS at their national website and more about the upcoming trainings at The Wonderings of Sheep in the Atrium.

There is nothing more difficult than to teach moral values to a child of this age; he gives an immediate retort to everything that we say, having become a rebel…An inner change has taken place, but nature is quite logical in arousing now in the child not only a hunger for knowledge and understanding, but a claim to mental independence, a desire to distinguish good from evil by his own powers, and to resent limitation by arbitrary authority.

"When all things are subjected to Him, then the Son Himself will also be subjected to the One who subjected all things to Him, so that God may be all in all." -1 Corinthians 15:28    Submit a Podcast Listener Question HERE!    Podcasts by Series  Level One Book Study  Level Two Book Study    Ann Garrido joins us on the podcast again and today she speaks about the life and theology of Pierre Teilhard de Chardin, the French Jesuit priest whose writings and theology Sofia mentions in the chapter My Readings from Way of Holy Joy which is a book of selected writings of Sofia Cavalletti. Ann tells us about this unique theologian, helps us explore the similarities in his work and those of Maria Montessori and Sofia Cavalletti as well as where we can see his influence in the work of The Catechesis of the Good Shepherd.     Ann Garrido has been a catechist of the Good Shepherd since 1996.  She has served as a catechist and formation leader at all three levels.  Ann is an Associate Professor and Director of the Aquinas Children's Worship Partnership at the Aquinas Institute of Theology in St. Louis, Missouri.  She is the author of multiple works, including her newest book Redeeming Power about the healthy and holy exercise of leadership.  Ann Garrido's website HERE      “Above all, trust in the slow work of God. We are quite naturally impatient in everything to reach the end without delay. We should like to skip the intermediate stages. We are impatient of being on the way to something unknown, something new. And yet, it is the law of all progress that it is made by passing through some stages of instability- and that it may take a very long time. And so I think it is with you, your ideas mature gradually- let them grow, let them shape themselves without undue haste. Don't try to force them on, as though you could be today what time (that is to say, grace and circumstances acting on your own good will) will make you tomorrow. Only God could say what this new spirit gradually forming within you will be. Give our Lord the benefit of believing that God's hand is leading you, and accept the anxiety of feeling yourself in suspense and incomplete.” - Pierre Teilhard de Chardin, The Making of a Mind, from a letter written July 4, 1915    “The Son of God became man so that man might become God” - St Althanasius, Bishop of Alexandria, On the Incarnation    Website on the Aquinas Children's Worship Partnership     CGS Heritage     A good biography of Teilhard       Podcasts about CGS Heritage/Influencers:  109: Father Dalmazio Mongillo  92: Who was Adele Costa Gnocchi  78: A Glimpse of Gianna Gobbi  76: Romano Guardini  71: A Glimpse at Sofia  68: Eugenio Zolli  60: Pioneers of CGS with Betty Hissong  57: Celebrating the Life of Tina Lillig    Podcasts Episodes with Ann Garrido:  Episode 19 – Typology with Ann Garrido   Episode 53 – The Birth and Infancy of Jesus with Ann Garrido   Episode 59 – Preaching with Children with Ann Garrido   Episode 68 – The CGS Heritage – Eugenio Zolli with Ann Garrido   Episode 111.

Episode 165. Building of Relationship with Carolyn Kohlhaas  “If you, O Lord, should mark iniquities, Lord, who could stand? But there is forgiveness with you, so that you may be revered.”   Psalm 130: 3-4    Submit a Podcast Listener Question HERE!    Podcasts by Series  Level One Book Study  Level Two Book Study  "Moral existence is a response to the Lord's loving initiative. It is the acknowledgement and homage given to God and a worship of thanksgiving. It is cooperation with the plan God pursues in history." Catechism of the Catholic Church, Paragraph 2062    “To teach morality, the catechist must be convinced that at its roots is love, and then proceed from that principle. Morality emerges from love. We must never wander far from this source, not even when we teach explicitly the Law, which shows us the way we must follow to reach God. The entire Law has been summarized by Jesus in the two commandments of love, and He has made love the badge of allegiance. ‘One cannot obey more than one loves,' wrote the prior of the Little Brothers of Jesus.” (Teaching Doctrine and Liturgy)    “We can never stress too much the necessity of anchoring every moral teaching in a solid, kerygmatic orientation. Before providing specific instructions of what I am to do, moral formation must tell me with whom I do it, for whom I do it, with whom I am in relationship. Often we rush to action without having given enough thought to these primary questions.” (RPCII, 83)  “The primary and fundamental attitude of the person educated in the moral life is the awareness of belonging: to belong to God, to belong to God's world, to belong to humanity.”- Father Mongillo  Carolyn joins the conversation today to walk us through how morality evolves and progresses in a child's life and how we can meet those needs in all levels of the atria.  Carolyn Kohlhaas is a nationally recognized Formation Leader for CGS at all three levels of formation. She received her Bachelor of Arts Degree in Theology and in Religious Education from Franciscan University of Steubenville and her AMI Primary (3-6) and Elementary (6-12) Level Certifications from the Montessori Training Center of Minnesota. Carolyn has a Master of Education degree (Loyola College, Maryland) as well as a Master of Arts in Theology (St. Paul Seminary School of Divinity).
