Introducing
Friendly Defenders Catholic Flash Cards
There's
no greater gift a parent or teacher can give to a Catholic
child than a firm grounding in the faith. When strengthened
by faith, a child can truly soar.
Yet, a good knowledge
of (and love for) the Catholic faith won't come by accident.
This knowledge needs to be pursued, nurtured, and put into
practice.
With a firm understanding
of the Catholic faith, a child will love God above all things
(Matt. 22:37), build his or her house on a firm foundation
(Matt. 7:24), have a full and abundant life (John 10:10),
know what's right when others say it's wrong (Romans 12:2),
be strong in times of trouble (Psalm 46:2), be at peace
in the storms of life (Philippians 4:7) and live a good
and holy life (Matt. 5:3-12). What more could a Catholic
parent ask for?
As parents, we
need to assist teachers in the vitally important task of
training our children in the Catholic faith. The book of
Proverbs says the rewards will be great: "Train up
a child in the right way and when they are old, they will
not stray." (Proverbs 22:6)
The Friendly
Defenders Catholic Flash Cards are designed to help you
"train up your children" so that they will never
stray from God's love and from the Catholic Church our Lord
Jesus established. The 50 cards within feature common questions
people have about the Catholic faith as well as short, easy-to-understand
answers. The cards help young people to "be always
ready to give a reason for the hope that is in us."
(1 Peter 3:15)
We hope you enjoy
passing on the Catholic faith to your children or students
with these helpful and entertaining cards. Who knows, you
might even learn something yourself!
Sincerely yours
in Christ
