Introduced concepts of 1. Mystical Body of Christ, 2. The Bride of Christ, and 3. God as Father and the Church as Mother. The concepts are used in speech below.
Finished class with a speech. Taught class how to project while speaking using an actual speech. All students stood at front of class (to cut down embarrassment). Divided up half of speech between students (rest can be read later). I edited the speech for length and some dicey topics. The entire speech can be viewed here, "Love for Jesus and His Church must be the passion of our lives!" by Archbishop Dolan of New York, President of the USCCB.
