3rd Grade Faith Formation
3rd Grade Classes will be using St. Mary's Press Discover! - Finding Faith in Life
From St. Marys Press:
Our founder, Saint John Baptist de La Salle, believed that God’s word is powerful in touching hearts. We still believe that today, which is why we’ve created a faith formation program that puts The Catholic Children's Bible at the center.
Each child receives their own Discover Kit, containing everything they need for their exciting faith journey. Children will dive into Bible stories in the Catholic Children's Bible to encounter Jesus through the stories and people of scripture. Then, they get out of their seats for a built-in energetic learning activity that helps build a meaningful lesson. Next, they connect the Bible story and hand-on activity with Catholic doctrine through age-appropriate prayers, puzzles, and challenges in their Activity Book. Watch as they connect the dots and transform a learned faith into a joyfully lived faith!
When they are done with the day's discoveries, everything gets packed up in their own backpack until it's time for the next adventure!
Each lesson is led using the Discover! Finding Faith in Life Catechist Guide (Grade 3), which will allow your catechists and volunteers to joyfully guide children on their journey.
