Liturgy and the Dignity of Children
Heidi Witte ’09, a former Catholic Social Tradition Minor, now hosts the Children’s Liturgy of the Word on Catholic TV. Heidi shares how the CST minor and center programming such as Seminars and SSLP impacted her faith and opened her eyes to various perspectives of the world. Her passion for working with children led her to develop a children’s Liturgy of the Word for her home parish in South Bend. When the coronavirus began, Heidi and her husband blended her teaching background with his video production expertise to transfer their program online. The weekly sessions have reached over 2,000 viewers from across the country and recognize the dignity of children by making the teachings of the faith developmentally appropriate and accessible to them.

The Signs of the Times Podcast presented by the Center of Social Concerns discusses principles of human dignity, solidarity with the marginalized, and the common good as they relate to current events.
