    STATIC Solutions the 21st century Baltimore Catechism

    What the Baltimore Catechism was for the 19th Century STATIC is for the 21st Century – it recognizes the basic needs and capacities of the local community and provides a process that quite simply works. I give the STATIC program and STATIC Solutions, LLC my highest recommendation.
    Westland, Michigan (STATICWEB) 12, August, 2009 --
    STATIC Solutions, LLC a leader in middle school faith formation received a letter of recommendation of highest praise for quality solid Catholic formation material.

    To Whom This May Concern
    STATIC Programming is an excellent program and I believe that every parish should be utilizing each and every dimension. St. Theodore of Canterbury parish has been using the STATIC programming exclusively for our Middle School students since the fall of 2004. What began as a process to challenge our students to take on a more adult attitude regarding their own faith lives provided not only an exceptional experience with a sound theological foundation; rich biblical principles and fruitful interpersonal dynamics; it also challenged their parents and general parish as well.
    After over 30 years of experience working with adolescents and pre-adolescents I went looking for a Religious Education process or program that would not only keep these older students from becoming bored but that would encourage their unique process in faith formation and learning. STATIC Small Group provides the process that not only teaches the students more about understanding and living their faith but in a way that allows them to interact with the information and with one another. The STATIC Large Group activities, which is more of a youth group based activities, gives the students a place to be in faith while having fun and in the whole process learning more about their faith and how to live it. And the program doesn’t just stop there. The journals for each grade level and the exceptional three years Service Process the possibilities are endless.
    STATIC Solutions LLC continues to come out each year with new and innovative ideas such as newsletters, retreats and more I know that we will be able to provide a vital, nurturing program for decades to come. What the Baltimore Catechism was for the 19th Century STATIC is for the 21st Century – it recognizes the basic needs and capacities of the local community and provides a process that quite simply works. I give the STATIC program and STATIC Solutions, LLC my highest recommendation. I remain,
    Your Servant in Christ,

Defending the Faith…Purgatory

Purgatory
The Catholic faith teaches that when we die we will either spend entirety in Heaven or Hell, if we are to spend it in Heaven we must first cleanse ourselves to make our souls pure, for nothing impure will enter in to heaven. The teaching of Purgatory is not just a made up Catholic [...]

The Apprentice

Unless the Lord builds a house, the work of the builders is useless. (Psalm 127:1)

Well I am no builder of homes, but I think i understand the basic concept here, Christ, the master carpenter, must be part of the team. We must include God in all we build up here on earth or it will [...]

Priest, Profit and King

A a minister with in the Catholic Church I am charged with teaching the truths of the Church, proclaiming the good news of the Gospels and imparting the moral code that the Church has given us. In truth as a Catholic, regardless if I’m a minister or not I am charged with the same.

Top Ten list of the Church

You ever notice that people really like top ten lists or just list in general. I think it’s because we really don’t have to think a lot about a list, it’s pretty straight forward, you have a list, and it’s in order from lowest to highest. Someone has done the work for you; all you [...]

God’s Infomercial

Can we truly find heaven here on earth? This is a question my friend posted on her blog (www.timelytidbits.wordpress.com). Well really not a question but rather a statement of trying to find heaven here on earth, the Promised Land. Like the Israelites, we too walk aimlessly in a desert, or so we think.
They were [...]

Eyes of the Soul

Where is God in this world? Does God still show himself to us, can we still see God here on earth? I say yes we can, if we only look.
 
God has never left us, he has always been here on earth with us, and all we need to do is learn to see with our [...]

It’s Hard being Catholic, so what!

When we think about it, it really is a scary thing. We are not sure what do to, what to believe… Is the world right and everyone else wrong, or am I right and the world wrong?
Questions we have all had concerning our faith. Can the Catholic church be the one true faith? Did Jesus [...]
