Elementary
St. Patrick Elementary Faith Formation uses Sadlier’s We Believe series as its basic text. It is a comprehensive series that is faithful to the teaching of the Catholic Church and holistically embraces the four pillars of the catechism: creed, liturgy and sacrament, moral life, and prayer. The content of each lesson is presented in the spirit of the General Directory for Catechesis and formatted to contain three components that echo the way in which Jesus taught:
We Gather – engages children in prayer, and invites them to share their life experiences.
We Believe – presents the truths of the Catholic faith found in scripture and Tradition in age appropriate culturaly inclusive and easy to grasp ways.
We Respond – invites children to respond to God’s call and grace, to put their faith into action through prayers, activities, and reflection.
Additional sacramental texts are used by students and their families preparing to celebrate Reconciliation and First Communion.
