What does it really mean to be a patriot?

Join Miss Katie for a special Tea Time as we discover that true freedom isn't simply being able to do whatever we want—it's having the freedom to choose what is good. Together, we'll explore what the Catholic Church teaches about patriotism and why Catholics are called to love, serve, and pray for their country while always placing God first.

Through inspiring stories and timeless truths, children will learn that faithful Catholics make the very best patriots because they seek the good of their neighbor, honor those who serve, and work to build a nation rooted in virtue. Most importantly, we'll remember that while we are grateful for our earthly homeland, our ultimate home is Heaven.

Together we'll discover why God chose John's name before he was born, why the people of Judea were filled with amazement, and how St. John spent his whole life pointing others toward Christ.
