SACRAMENT PREPARATION

CURRICULUM

CURRICULUM


Picture
Encounter with Christ is a completely new Sacrament preparation program for from Our Sunday Visitor!

Designed for use with children ages 7-10, this innovative, highly flexible program can be catechist-led at the parish, or parent-led at home. It can be used in family gathered settings with age specific formation or parent-child interaction. The program integrates families as critical participants in their children’s Sacrament preparation in all models. Building on the pedagogical and catechetical foundation of Alive in Christ basal curriculum, it may be used as a companion program or separately.
​

The Child’s Book draws the child and family into their parish community with a developmentally appropriate, visually engaging approach that is used in both catechist-led and parent-led sessions. Children come to understand the order the Rites, the signs and what they signify, and the meaning of the Sacraments in the larger context of our Catholic faith. Children and families are inspired and moved to full and active participation in parish life. 

SACRAMENT PREPARATION 


Sacrament preparation processes have a family lens where students and parents work closely together in all aspects of the process. 

Reconciliation- preparation process focuses on learning the Reconciliation Rite and understanding the difference between a sin, accident and mistake.
​

Confirmation and First Communion- preparation is done in the same process. The process prepares the children to understand the theology and liturgical rituals for each sacrament.
