Religious Education Curriculum RE_T3_W6.jpg

1/2 continue to learn about communication with God. They are exploring different forms of prayer and Scriptures in which Jesus led prayer with others. At home this could be further deepened with looking at your own family prayer practices. This resource from the Brisbane Diocese may be of use as your family trial different ways of praying. https://litedliturgybrisbane.weebly.com/family-prayer-week-by-week.html/

5/6 have begun to explore how prayer connects us with God. In the coming weeks we will investigate the Catholic Church’s Liturgical Calendar and how we often pray differently as we move through the liturgical year. Looking at the year, when can you see high points and low points in our seasonal celebrations?
