New campaign from the Ontario Catholic School Trustees’ Association

The Ontario Catholic School Trustees’ Association is launching a new campaign.

The Together in Faith project is trying to show political leaders, and the province as a whole, that there is a diverse base of support for Catholic education. Principle of Religious and Family Life Education Paul Mantha outlined the campaign at the last meeting of the Catholic District School Board of Eastern Ontario, highlighting its value.

Mantha says this promotion includes letters to archbishops, sent out in January, to make them aware of the website. Introductory letters asked pastors to speak with their parishioners during mass and make them aware of the website. In the fall pastors are being asked to post bulletins in the parish.

Another part of the campaign involves scripts being presented to principles and schools so they can remind parents about the campaign. Secondary schools will be asking student council members to collect stories from students about good times within their school community.

Mantha says as one community they must speak with one resounding voice. Adding that he believes students learn better when they learn within a faith community, when they learn through faith and when they learn of their faith.
