The program, Focus on Faith, was sponsored by the Huron- Perth County Roman Catholic Separate School board, and was initiated in 1974 by the Ontario Separate School Trustees' Association to highlight the Faith dimension of catholic schools in the province. Participating in the program were two parent couples from each of the 19 separate schools, principals and their spouses, teacher representatives and spouses, the trustees and their wives, the priests, administrative staff and their wives and Bishop John Sherlock, London, the celebrant of the Eucharist. Special speakers for the day from the Ontario Separate School Trustees' Assaciation were Chris Asseff, Executive Director and Sister Elaine Dunn, Resource Co- ordinator. The program has been divided into three phases, 'the first in- volved the trustees, while Sun- day's program which was the second phase, involved the parents and phase three will have the Children in the catholic schools as the centre and object of the program. Sunday the parents discussed ways through which the home, the school, the church and the community could work together in better faith commitment. It was found that parents cannot work as individuals but require help from many sources to fulfill the role of Catholic christian parent. Sister Elaine in her address said that parents, priests, principals, and teachers "should be united around our children" and repeated a statement by Bishop Sherlock that "what gets communicated to children are: the values you hold, the things you love and the lives you live". Mr, Asseff said that parents are apathetic and noone has found a way to get them interested in the faith education of their children until the present Focus on Faith program and we are showing the parents they have a very important part to play in the faith education of their children, Mr. Asseff told the group that parents have the primary and inalienable right and respon- sibility for the education of their children and that faith must be blended with learning and living as it is in the home. He said, "Our schools come into being and continue to the extent that catholic parents consider their faith to be their most precious legacy to their children," He said "Our schools must meet this primary stand; deepening, clarifying, ripening the faith received in the home." William Eckert, Director of Education, concluded his remarks to the assembly: "We take pride in our beliefs and we want our children to believe as we do. We want to give our children the best possible chances for knowing, un- derstanding and loving God," BALLOON-LAUNCH Come And Help Us LAUNCH 250 BALLOONS 9:45 Sunday Morning A.M.
