Gospel Values Essay, Research Paper
One of the ways that I would involve the students in the Brebeuf community is to have them join the leadership camp that I attended. I found that retreat to be a very fulfilling experience. I think that through this retreat, students will learn to respect themselves as well as others in the school community. Hopefully this mutual respect will also further extend beyond just our school community. Through this retreat they will be able to learn how God was, and how he still lives within us.
Another way to create a community fostered around the Gospel Values is to have monthly retreats to the Chapel (this is similar to what was done maybe one year ago where each homeroom had there own retreat to the chapel during first period). This will allow each student in the community to reflect upon past problems or issues and prepare for the future. This can also be followed by reflection by each students and how they feel on certain topics.
The idea of reciting prayers in the morning during homeroom will also be something that must be kept. It is the Angeles that has kept religion in our school day, and it must remain that way. The community should also help out to encourage in weekly mass attendance. Mass every weekend is very important as student must understand that by not attending mass it is a sin.
