Brief Description of Program

Lessons are divided into 10 themes:
Belonging, Celebrating, Listening, Caring, Making Peace, Giving Thanks for Creation, Giving Thanks for New Life, Sharing a Meal, the Mass, and Going Forth.

Each lesson builds upon the last to guide children in their understanding of God’s love and mercy and to prepare them to receive God’s gift of forgiveness through the Sacrament of Reconciliation and to take part in our faith community’s meal of thanksgiving, the Sacrament of the Eucharist.
