CHILD AS THEOLOGIAN
~with the Holy Spirit as the Inner Teacher~
From time to time we are blessed with a glimpse into the interior spiritual life of the child. In the unstructured time following a scripture or liturgical presentation, the child spends time with the materials and in art expression. "This is the moment when the child, in the inner dialogue [with the Holy Spirit] personalizes what has been presented and applies it to his own life." - Sofia Cavalletti, Religious Potential of the Child.
"Mary Said Yes!"
A 6-year-old boy in level 2 drew this prayer after contemplating the Annunciation.
Notice the joy!
The two fuzzy creatures are angels, Gabriel and Michael (the larger one). "St. Michael
came along to make sure Gabriel did the right thing!"
