ATRIUM 25-26

KINDERGARTEN AND FIRST GRADE 

Catechesis of the Good Shepherd (CGS) is an approach to faith formation where children are formed in a sacred spaced called the Atrium. It is through this environment that they prepare for a fuller and more conscious participation in their Catholic faith.

 
 

ATRIUM: PRE-SACRAMENTAL PREP bridges the initial recognition of words and gestures to an awareness of the values and understanding of a relationship with God.  Participation gives the foundation needed to prepare for the Sacraments of Reconciliation and Communion in their 2nd grade year.
