The Baptism of the Lord
Sebastiano Ricci, ca. 1713-1714
“Then Jesus came from Galilee to the Jordan to John, to be baptized by him. John would have prevented him, saying, “I need to be baptized by you, and do you come to me?” But Jesus answered him, “Let it be so now; for thus it is fitting for us to fulfil all righteousness.” Then he consented. And when Jesus was baptized, he went up immediately from the water, and behold, the heavens were opened and he saw the Spirit of God descending like a dove, and alighting on him; and lo, a voice from heaven, saying, “This is my beloved Son, with whom I am well pleased.””
Matt 3:13-17
ANNUAL EDUCATION MASS and dinner 2019
Congratulations are extended to Ms. Ulrike Licht, kindergarten teacher at St. Joseph Catholic School who was the recipient of the Jean Baptist De La Salle award. The award was presented by His Eminence, Cardinal Collins, to Ulrike at the Annual Education Mass and Dinner on August 28th. Ulrike’s steadfast commitment as a Catholic educator has not only impacted and inspired her students but has also led to stronger and deeper connections being forged between parish and school, connections which have led to the Catholic faith being more vibrant and present than ever before.
About
The Catholic Teachers Guild is a lay organization to support teachers in their vocation as teacher. We are formally constituted and have been active for 17 years. Our mission statement reads:
The mission of the Catholic Teachers Guild is to support and strengthen the vocation of the teacher in the teaching tradition of the Catholic Church. This follows from a conviction that Catholic Education is anchored in the personal witness, not only in the Word proclaimed but also in the Word lived.
We seek to support the vocation of the Catholic teacher through special events, lectures, study groups, a web site and, ultimately, by the establishment of an institute for such activity.
The Catholic Teachers Guild is the result of a collegial effort by a group of lay teachers. We are a community that seeks the guidance of the Holy Spirit through a wider involvement of those called to teach.
