Kathy Ferguson, a teacher at St. John School in Fenton teaches what she truly believes, and takes her pre-kindergarten class to Mass and adoration.
“We’re not quiet, I’ll be the first to admit it! We sing to Jesus and talk to him about what we’re thankful for. Before we enter the chapel, we ask ourselves, ‘Is there something I could change?’ If so, we ask Jesus and our Blessed Mother to come into our hearts to help.
“It’s not work! I get to go to school every day and see the miracle of life through the eyes of 3-, 4- and 5-year-olds. We talk about Jesus being alive in our hearts, and how they can develop a friendship with Christ. I don’t talk to them as if he is gone, because he’s not gone! He’s right there with us.”
“I waited a long time to do this. I was a wife and mother first, but my vocation was always teaching,” she says.
