Missions Office is heading to El Salavdor - Join us on the journey!

Dear Teachers,

This week, we travel to El Salvador, where students will encounter Fernando, a young man who is pursuing his dream of becoming a businessman. In exploring his story, students will also learn about the Catholic social teaching principle, the Dignity of Work and Rights of Workers.

Getting to El Salvador is easy. Just follow these links:
· Fernando’s Story of Hope: Read Fernando’s story as a class, or show his video, to introduce your students to this ambitious young man.
· Lesson Plans & Activity Sheets: Click on your grade and scroll to this week’s country to find what you need to delve deeper into this week’s story and Catholic social teaching principle.

o Grades 1-3
o Grades 4-6
o Grades 7-8
o Grades 9-12

In peace,
Kelly Hickman
