Our new Blended Learning model seeks to share and reinforce our rich Catholic heritage by providing a number of traditions and prayers to learn together as a family. Each family will chose and participate in two faith activities each month. We offer a variety of options to support families on their individual faith journeys. 
We will continue to offer activities throughout the summer which are OPTIONAL. There is no need to sign up as you did during the school year. We would love to see any pictures that you are willing to share. Email them to: religioused@stpaulkensington.org.

Devotion to the Sacred Heart of Jesus began during the 12th century. It wasn’t until 1673, when Sister Margaret Mary Alacoque (canonized in 1920) began to receive visions of Jesus’ Sacred Heart. These visions would occur to St. Margaret periodically over the course of two years. During the visions, St. Margaret spoke with Jesus. Of the many things he told her, Jesus said he wanted the image of his heart to be made known so that people were reminded of his love and mercy. teachingcatholickids.com
