NCEA is pleased to share its new weekly reflection series “Catholic School Educators: Call to Discipleship” for the new liturgical year. This series shares reflections for educators contributed by Justin McClain, teacher at Bishop McNamara High School and author of Called to Teach: Daily Inspiration for Catholic Educators. The weekly reflections are a regular feature in our Friday Weekly Round Up blog posts on www.nceatalk.org – check back each Friday for a new weekly reflection.
Third Sunday of Easter – April 30, 2017
Gospel Reading: Luke 24:13-35
“Were not our hearts burning within us while he spoke to us on the way and opened the Scriptures to us?”
Teachers in Catholic schools are called to have zeal for spreading the Gospel. No matter our particular subject or content area, and independent of all other considerations, we must have a deep and abiding love for the Lord if we expect our students to flourish in all respects, especially on their journey to the Lord. What a unique opportunity we have in Catholic school communities to place the furtherance of the Word of God at the core of our school’s goals.
How do you bring your students to embrace the beautiful message of the Sacred Scriptures?
