What do you do for living?

How did God create 40000000 things?

What do you do for a living?

I do a lot of things. Aside from being a wife and mom, farmer, Catholic Worker -  I am a catechist. And it just so happens I get paid to do it because it comes with a title, director.

But really the question is:

What do you do for living?

One thing that I do quite regularly is meditate with children on the mysteries of our God in the atria of the Catechesis of the Good Shepherd.

****

   #3  The atrium is a community in which children and adults live together a religious experience which facilitates participation in the wider community of the family, the church and other social spheres.

• The atrium is a place of prayer, in which work and study spontaneously become meditation, contemplation and prayer.

32 Characteristics of the Catechesis of the Good Shepherd

****

This week we have been meditating on the three main events of God's plan for Salvation: Creation, Redemption, and Parousia.  

After the presentation of the Fettucia (an impressionistic lesson on the the mystery God and time) the mediatation question was What questions do you have for God?

Did you create me because you love me?

How did you make me? How did you make animals? No one is God's mother. How did God be made?

How did God create a rainbow?
