January 29, 2021

In religion class, our fifth grade students are developing their prayer lives and studying the sacraments.  Currently, Ms. Kathol begins class with a prayer called the Liturgy of the Hours, the daily prayer of the Church.  Our students are developing the habit of listening to Scripture and searching for a word or phrase that particularly speaks to them. Ms. Kathol changes the group's prayer practice every two weeks.

Here, students are working together to analyze a passage about how the Sacrament of Confirmation strengthens the gifts given at Baptism.
