Is There Really Hope in the Young, Principle Four of Seven

This is the fourth of a series of seven principles for Catholic educators based on the words and actions of John Paul II as he conveyed in Crossing the Threshold of Hope.

It is this vocation to love that naturally allows us to draw close to the young. It is necessary to teach them love. As a young priest I learned to love human love. This has been one of the fundamental themes of my priesthood – my ministry in the pulpit, in the confessional, and in my writing.

Principle Four for Catholic Educators:  Practice the vocation to love and teach the children love. Make it the theme of your teaching.
