My name is Cheryl. I
coordinate our Sunday morning children’s programs.
I get comments from parents about the children
“not getting anything out of Church” or parents
worried about ever bringing their children into
the church. I was happy to discover your article
“Avoiding Mass Hysteria” and would love to pass it
along to the families. I think it would be very
helpful for them.

My name is Yolanda S. I am a new Hispanic Minister
at my parish at St. Matthews the Evangelist
Catholic Church in Houston, Texas. I am contacting
you about your article, “TEACHING CHILDREN HOW TO
BEHAVE IN CHURCH.” I was searching the web under
“Catholic Family Education,” and this led me to
your article and I was totally impressed with it!
I have been searching for this type of
information, but I never thought I would get right
to the source! Your article is beautifully written
and it is EXACTLY what I have been looking for!
When I found your article, I was wowed! I truly
loved it! It is everything I was looking for.
Therefore, I would like to request your permission
to reprint your article for distribution to our
parish members.

I am the Director of Religious Education, and I
was trying to find something definitive on how to
behave during Mass, because that is a major
problem that we have. I found your article and was
wondering if I could have permission to copy it
either in whole or excerpts for our Church
bulletin or as a hand out to the children? Thank
you for a great article.
