Opening Prayer


God


Have you ever received something marvelous for which you did not ask?


That’s God, who knows all the secrets which you keep hidden in your heart.


Have you ever found yourself in a difficult situation for which there seemed to be no

solution,


And then, in the twinkling of an eye, the answer became as clear as daylight?


That’s God, who unceasingly takes our problems into his hands and helps us solve them.


Everything goes better when God takes the lead.


Let us share with everyone the great love God has for us. Amen.

Faith Formation Content Still Includes…

from the Catholic School Religious Education Curriculum Evaluation Matrix by Brian Lemoi


"All of these tasks are necessary. As the vitality of the human body depends on the proper function of all of its organs, so also the maturation of the Christian life requires that it be cultivated in all its dimensions: knowledge of the faith, liturgical life, moral formation, prayer, belonging to community, missionary spirit. When catechesis omits one of these elements, the Christian faith does not attain full development.
