FIRST SEMESTER
New
Testament - An Introduction - Young Catholics need to rub shoulders
with the culture of Jesus and his times. Likewise, they need to know that
in Scripture things are not always what they appear to be. Scripture presents
so much more, and young people should never be afraid of the truth as presented
in Scripture. This text will introduce them to questions people have asked
over the ages: Were the Magi historical figures? Did Jesus really raise
people from the dead, or were they just asleep? Did Jesus really die, and
did his body really come out of the tomb? By tackling such questions, this
course will help young people to appreciate the contemporary Catholic understanding
of Scripture and give them tools to avoid fundamentalistic leanings that
distort real Catholic doctrine and Scripture itself.

YEAR ONE
SECOND SEMESTER
Liturgy
and Worship - A Course on Prayer & Sacraments - It is in the
Church’s liturgy, especially the seven sacraments, that Catholics celebrate
all that God has done for us in Christ Jesus through the working of the
Holy Spirit. Our salvation was made possible through the paschal mystery
of Christ’s passion, death, resurrection, and ascension. This mystery is
made present to us in the sacred actions of the Church’s liturgy. As members
of the Church, we are called upon to enter into this mystery of faith and
truly people of both word and sacrament. This is where our lives of faith
are proclaimed, formed, and nourished. If young people are to be strong
and faithful followers of Christ, they must make the liturgical life of
the Church their own.
