Parents and teachers know that learning begins at birth. Language and a basic understanding of rules are learned as an on going process throughout the life of a child beginning at birth. Early attention has been paid to enriching the young child with reading , writing and math skills. However, the attention given to these subjects has not been applied to the spiritual development of a young child. If a child can learn the vocabulary of their native language, a child can learn the vocabulary of the Church. If a child can learn the "ABC's", a child can learn the basic prayers of the Church. If a child is to learn that God loves him/her and he/she should love Him back, a child needs to know WHO and What God is. It is the responsibility of parents, teachers and the Church to begin the spiritual teaching of a child from Birth!!!
