Dear Parents,

May the peace of our Lord Jesus and Mama Mary be with you!

As our community celebrates it’s 30th year this month, we are introducing a new set of teachings for your
children to learn more about how to be a cool catholic kid while living a pure life, that is free from vices
and addictions.

Our topic for this month is about Saints as our Brothers and Sisters. We had different activities that
introduced the lives of different saints to the children, and hopefully will inspire them to follow at least
one particular saint of their choice.

Each of us desires to be a saint, or at least to be holy, and that is also our dream for your children. And this
is the perfect time for them to teach while they are still young! Here are some suggestions of how to
support them in living the a holy and saintly life:

1. Talk to them.
Allow your child to talk about his/her chosen saint, his realizations and steps on how to imitate the
saint’s life. In this way, you are helping your child to process his /her emotions and reflections,
thus , making him/her more convicted with his/her desire to live a holy/saintly life.
2. Walk with them.
Though this may also be new to you, encouraging them with this will also help you to live a
holy/saintly life. Try to study the life os your child’s chosen saint, so you can also give inputs and
this will encourage your child with this endeavor. This is also a good way to bond with each other
as you both discover the holy life and ways of the chosen saint.
3. Pray for them.
Ask the Lord to guide your child to live a holy life everyday, inspired by his/her chosen saint. Also,
for us to be good parents and guidance for our children, that we may lead them to live a holy life
for the Lord.

There are many ways of how we could support our children in living a meaningful life. We hope and pray
that our little ways of bringing our children to God through these activities will help them become
committed and mature Christians. May we continue to work together in bringing God’s plan to your
children.

May our Strong God continue to bless you and your family.

In Christ through Mary,

The KFL Team 

Mahal naming mga Magulang,

Ang kapayapaan ng ating Panginoong Jesus at Inang Maria ay sumainyo!

Sa pagdiriwang ng ating komunidad ng ika-30 taon sa buwang ito, kami ay maglalahad ng isang bagong hanay
ng mga paksa para sa inyong mga anak tungkol sa kung paano maging isang cool na Katolikong bata bata
habang namumuhay ng may pagkadalisay, malayo sa bisyo at adiksyon.

Ang aming paksa sa buwang ito ay “Ang mga Santo bilang ating mga Kapatid”. Kami ay nagkaroon ng iba't
ibang gawain na nagpapakilala ng buhay ng iba't ibang mga Santo sa inyong mga anak, at nawa’y mag bigay
inspirasyon sa kanila upang gayahin ang isang partikular na Santong kanilang mapipili.

Ang bawat isa sa atin ay naghahangad na maging isang santo, o kaya’y maging isang banal na tao, at ito rin ang
ating pangarap para ating mga anak. At naniniwala kami na ngayon ang tamang pagkakataon upang sila ay
maturuan ng pagkabanal habang sila ay bata pa. Narito ang ilang mga mungkahi kung paano natin
matutulungan ang ating mga anak na mamuhay ng banal:

1. Kausapin sila.
Hayaan ang inyong anak na magkwento at ilahad ang kanyang mga saloobin sa kanyang napiling Santo.
Sa ganitong paraan tinutulungan natin ang ating mga anak sa pagproseso ng kanilang mga saloobin at
mga nararamdaman na mag papalalim ng kanyang pag nanais na mamuhay ng may kabanalan.
2. Gabayan Sila.
Maaring ito ay bago rin sa inyo, ngunit ang pag-gabay at pag-hikayat sa kanila ay makakatulong din sa
inyo upang mamuhay sa kabanalan. Subukang pag-aralan ang buhay ng Santong napili ng inyong anak,
upang kayo rin ay makapag-lahad ng inyong saloobin, at sa gayong paraan ay mas mahikayat ninyo ang
inyong mga anak na ipag-patuloy ang pagsunod sa buhay ng mga santo. Ito rin ay isang mahusay na
paraan upang mapalalim ang inyong relasyon sa isa’t-isa.
3. Manalangin para sa kanila.
Hingin ang patnubay ng ating Panginoon upang tulungan ang inyong anak na mamuhay ng may
kabanalan araw-araw, sa inspirasyon ng kanyang napiling Santo. Gayundin, para sa ating mga
magulang, na maging mabuting inspirasyon at gabay sa kanila patungo sa isang buhay na para
Panginoon.

Maraming mga pamamaraan kung paano natin maaring suportahan ang ating mga anak upang mag karoon ng
isang makabuluhang buhay. Umaasa kami at nananalangin na ang aming maliliit na paraan upang dalhin ang
inyong anak sa Panginoon sa pamamgitan ng mga gawaing ito, ay makakatulong upang sila mas manindigan sa
buhay Kristyano. Nawa’y patuloy tayong mag-tulungan sa pagdala sa inyong anak sa plano ng Panginoon para
sa kanila.

Nawa’ y patuloy kayong pagpalain ng ating Diyos!

Kay Kristo sa pamamagitan ni Maria,

Ang KFL Team 
