Children of Fatima Co-op

The Children of Fatima co-op (CoF) is a cooperative of families devoted to the Traditional Latin Mass; it will serve primarily the parents and children of Mater Dei Catholic Parish in Irving. Since faith formation should be at the core of every endeavor, co-op Guides and assistants must have a reverence for the Traditional Latin Mass and support the traditional values of the Children of Fatima co-op members.
The majority of our days at CoF will be centered around our Applied Learning curriculum and our Traditional Latin Mass Catechesis of the Good Shepherd. The Applied Learning program specializes in giving the upper school children experience in perennial human arts, including handicrafts, homesteading, and lost arts, as well as, exposure to different trades through several optional presentations throughout the year. These two programs combine to provide the children an atmosphere in which to learn and explore a variety of skills both related to our Catholic faith and to our practical everyday needs.
The students will use the skills they learn at CoF in the present time to perform a variety of service projects for our church community at Mater Dei, as well as the larger community. We pray that through their exposure to a variety of trades and continued faith formation, the Children of Fatima co-op will also be of material assistance in the students’ discernment of God’s will for their future.

When: 10-12:00 Children of Fatima co-op will meet on Tuesday from 10-12 for ALL three levels of CGS and Applied Learning.
12:15-2:00 We hope all will attend Holy Mass at 12:15 together followed by lunch and recess.

There is a “Bulk Buy” for each class given to the teachers at the Meet-the-Teacher Party in August. Max “Bulk Buy” per student for each teacher is $15 and there are 2 classes per age group for the whole year, 6-15 years of age. We hope you can join!
