The Crusader Times NEWS FROM THE ATONEMENT ACADEMY Volume 2016-17, Issue 10: October 13, 2016 CATHOLIC SCHOOL MATTERS! The vonschulenburg Family Scripture tells us that God is love (1 John 4:8). As parents, we are called to be to our children a sign and expression of God, and this primarily through our parental love. As God s love is creative, so our love moves us to do everything in our power to create in our children perfect Christians and perfect human beings. Educating our children is a primary part of this work. We know our work will come to perfection only in heaven. But our responsibility is to give it as good a start as we can, leaving the rest in God s hands.
