Unless the Lord build the house, they labor in vain who build it.
Many dedicated teachers work long hours each day teaching children in Catholic schools.
In this solidarity with all men, living or dead, which is founded on the communion of saints, the least of our acts done in charity redounds to the profit of all. Every sin harms this communion. Formed by this experience, they are better able to build community in their families, their places of work, their neighborhoods, their nation, their world. By their witness and their behavior, teachers are of the first importance to impart a distinctive character to Catholic schools. It is therefore indispensable to make pastoral provision for their continuing formation.
