Tis the Season...
During the holiday season, we often hear the traditional song that says "Tis the season to be jolly". Feeling "jolly" is amazing, but it's important to remember that not everyone feels "jolly" this holiday season. You may be missing someone who should be sitting at your table; dealing with financial strains; managing some form of relational conflict; dealing with a health crisis; or navigating another difficult situation. In December, our CRE students will be focusing on learning about EMPATHY ang Gratitude. Empathy means "standing in someone else's shoes". Noticing and responding to the emotions of others is what empathy is all about. Demonstrating empathy is important during every season of life, but let's be intentional to show kindness and love to those around us this holiday season. The calendar below is a tool that you can use at home to encourage kindness and empathy.
