Activities
Connecting to the Gospel
Here you will find an activity for each Gospel story in The Life of Jesus section of the student text. The twelve activities correspond to the twelve select Gospel stories. These activities provide the young people with the opportunity to respond to what they learned from Scripture.
Inviting Family Time
In addition to the activities, you can also encourage the parents to complete the Family Time sessions that correspond to each Gospel story. This Family Time feature reviews the content of the Gospel stories and suggests ways in which the message of the Gospel can be lived in daily family life. A prayer is included with each Family Time session.
