St. Mary of the Springs Church - Hot Springs issued the following announcement Nov. 14.
All dioceses in the United States are required to provide safe environment training for children and youth. This is not “sex education.” Rather, it is age-appropriate information for children and youth so they can know how to help create safe environments for them, and what to do when they feel that a certain environment is not safe. For our children and youth, our diocese uses Circle of Grace, a program developed by the Archdiocese of Omaha and endorsed by Catholic Mutual Group. The goal of the Circle of Grace program is to educate and empower children and young people to actively participate in a safe environment for themselves and others. Faith Formation catechists will provide training during Faith Formation classes on November 21. Students were given information to bring home. Contact Sally Pierce or Jodi Tooke at 501-623-3233 for more information.
