FAMILY MATTERS

Fostering children's faith

with contributions from Anne Howe, Cantor Robert S. Scherr, Donna E. Schaper, Brad Pokorny, Shelly Angel

"If we teach the family to pray, ... our children will know how to respond ... for the rest of their lives."

The Sentinel asked members of several different religious traditions to share their thoughts about children and faith. These traditions share key common ground, such as the deep desire that children feel God's presence with them. Yet each comes at the important work of fostering faith from a unique perspective.

I give thanks to my Heavenly Father for two major things. First, that He provided a faith I have been able to learn and use. And second that He has given me the life experience and ability to practice my faith and to teach others about it.
