Please note: Some of our lesson plans contain links to Christian, non- Catholic resources. When preparing your lessons, we urge you to inform yourself on the teachings of the Catholic Church with respect to the Sunday gospel and readings. If you find links in any of the lesson plans that may be counter to the teachings of the Church, please notify lisa@catholicmom.com. These lessons plan helpers are designed to assist you in pulling together creative ideas and activities to supplement your lesson plan, but are not designed to be catechetical in nature.
