Welcome!

After careful review and prayerful discernment, we have decided to continue with Blest Are We: Faith in Action curriculum for Middle School Youth as well (6-8 grades). Similar to elementary grades, it uses SCRIPTURE, CATHOLIC SOCIAL TEACHING, and FAITH IN ACTION MINISTRIES to lead the youth in the Catholic faith! 

Grade 6: Five units focus on, "We Answer God's Call, God Saves and Delivers Us, God Invites Us into His Kingdom, God Reminds Us to Do His Will, and God Promises Us Everlasting Life."

Grade 7: Five units focus on, "The Mystery of the Incarnation, The Meaning of the Kingdom, The Christian Life, The Paschal Mystery, and The Good News." 

Grade 8: Five units focus on, "The Marks of the Church from the Beginning, The Growth of Christendom, The Age of Faith and Beauty, Reason, and Reform, and Returning to the Roots of Christianity."
