Students learn what the Catholic Church is, who the Holy Spirit is and how he guides the Church, and what it means that Jesus continues his mission through the life of the Church. Along with the basics of the Trinity and all seven sacraments, they build on what they have learned about prayer, and explore what it means to live as children of God. The year also focuses on Jesus's parables of the kingdom and Mary as the Mother of the Church. Includes a supplement on Confirmation for restored order dioceses.
