The presentation includes a step by step guide on how to say the Rosary along with all the divine mysteries. It also includes prayers like the Apostles' Creed, The Our Father, The Hail Mary, The Salve Regina, The Litany & The Memorare.
Some people find it tedious to pray the rosary because of the repetitive prayers but what the rosary is is a meditation on the lives of Jesus and Mary. Get into the habit of praying the rosary with your kids by showing them these paintings of every mystery as you meditate on each event and its "fruit".

"The Church" is the People that God gathers in the whole world. She exists in local communities and she draws her life from the word and the Body of Christ and so becomes Christ's Body. CCC 751- 752
Mary's role in the Church is inseparable from her union with Christ and flows directly from it.
Her union with the Son in the work of salvation is made manifest from the time of Christ's virginal conception up to his death.
She is our Mother in the order of grace: By her complete adherence to the Father's will, to his Son's redemptive work, and to every prompting of the Holy Spirit, the Virgin Mary is the Church's model of faith and charity.
Thus she is a "preeminent and unique member of the Church"; indeed, she is our model! CCC 963-967

We all have good and bad thoughts from time to time and situation to situation. We are bombarded daily with spiraling thoughts(both negative and positive) creating all-consuming feel , making us difficult to manage with associated suffering. Good thoughts are like our Mob Signal (Positive thought) amidst noise(negative thought) in the atmosphere. Negative thoughts like noise outweigh positive thoughts. These thoughts often create unwanted confusion, trouble, stress and frustration in our mind as well as chaos in our physical world. Negative thoughts are also known as “distorted thinking”.

Operation “Blue Star” is the only event in the history of Independent India where the state went into war with its own people. Even after about 40 years it is not clear if it was culmination of states anger over people of the region, a political game of power or start of dictatorial chapter in the democratic setup.
The people of Punjab felt alienated from main stream due to denial of their just demands during a long democratic struggle since independence.

2024.06.01 Introducing a competency framework for languag learning materials ...Sandy Millin
http://sandymillin.wordpress.com/iateflwebinar2024
Published classroom materials form the basis of syllabuses, drive teacher professional development, and have a potentially huge influence on learners, teachers and education systems. All teachers also create their own materials, whether a few sentences on a blackboard, a highly-structured fully-realised online course, or anything in between. Despite this, the knowledge and skills needed to create effective language learning materials are rarely part of teacher training, and are mostly learnt by trial and error.
Knowledge and skills frameworks, generally called competency frameworks, for ELT teachers, trainers and managers have existed for a few years now. However, until I created one for my MA dissertation, there wasn’t one drawing together what we need to know and do to be able to effectively produce language learning materials.
This webinar will introduce you to my framework, highlighting the key competencies I identified from my research. It will also show how anybody involved in language teaching (any language, not just English!), teacher training, managing schools or developing language learning materials can benefit from using the framework.
