Vision for this program • To be mission oriented and not just program oriented. The mission of the Church is to make disciples and the parents are the primary “disciple makers” • To meet the children in their environment who are all ready used to working with technology, but who also need the love and support of the family and the Church • To be more flexible with the demands on family time. It would be ideal for the students to “keep Sunday holy” by spending time with the family and doing their homework on Sunday. 4
Trusted Partnership Since 2009 & • My Catholic Faith Delivered (MCFD) is an award-winning cloud-based learning & development platform designed to meet the unique needs of the Catholic Church. • Partnered with Ignatius Press, MCFD provides the online Faith & Life Series for religious education students in grades 1-8. • The Faith & Life Series has been found in conformity with the Catechism of the Catholic Church by the Subcommittee on the Catechism, United States Conference of Catholic Bishops. 5
