“Model Parenting for a Moral Future”

Abofour, Ghana – Rev. Fr. Edward Yeboah Biney, Parish Priest of St. Francis Xavier Roman Catholic Church in Abofour, has emphasized the crucial role parents play in family management and shaping the lives of their children.

In a statement aimed at Christian parents and parents worldwide, Rev. Fr. Biney stressed that parents must lead by example to guide their children towards living a life that praises God and benefits humanity.

Rev. Fr. Biney highlighted that children learn significantly from their parents’ actions and behaviors.

“Children learn from you as a parent. Whatever you are doing in the presence of your children at home, don’t think your wards don’t monitor you – no, they do.

So whatever you do, they learn. If it’s good, they learn from it. When it turns out to be bad, they learn too,” he said.

He urged parents to strive to live an exemplary life to encourage their children to learn and live a moral life.

Encouraging Moral Living and Good Deeds, The Parish Priest reminded parents that the values and behaviors they exhibit will significantly influence how their children proceed in life, even in their absence.

“Let your good deeds follow you,” Rev. Fr. Biney advised, underscoring the importance of parents modeling good behavior for their children to inherit and carry forward.

This message from Rev. Fr. Biney aligns with the values promoted by St. Francis Xavier Roman Catholic Church, emphasizing the importance of moral living, family values, and the significant role of parents in shaping the next generation.
