During the year we will focus our studies on the importance of the 7 sacraments and how these sacraments can enhance our relationship to GOD, and help us to live our lives in a more spiritual way.
We have completed our unit of Common Catholic Prayers. Student should be able to :
1. Recite the "Our Father", "Hail Mary", "Blessings Before Meals', and our class prayer.
2. Place themselves in the presence of God before prayer.
3. Maintain a respectful attitude when participating in prayer, mass, and common religious activities.
We will now be working on the sacraments of Baptism and Confirmation.
We will continue to work on the Sacraments of Baptism and Confirmation, but will also be looking at the importance of the Season of Advent, our family trees, and holiday celebrations around the world. This is a fun and exciting time of year and it is important to reflect on the many blessing we have, the importance of family, and to strengthen our ties to our God.
