TORONTO - In Toronto, it’s easy to find classes for first-time parents aimed at raising happy and healthy children. “However, finding one with a faith focus was a challenge,” said new mom Racquel Sevilla.

To meet this need, Sevilla and fellow new parent Esther Eiling contacted Fr. Chris Cauchi, pastor at the Newman Centre on the University of Toronto campus, about launching a Raising Faith- Filled Kids discussion group. Using the book of the same name by Tom McGrath as a guide, the 12-member group met weekly for six weeks before wrapping up at the end of May.
