A pre-Confirmation bible study for students grades 7 and up to prepare students to begin Confirmation classes in 9th grade. Students view a video and participate in classroom discussions, led by a catechist. Our current offering is Encounter, an eight-part Bible study by Ascension Press:
Encounter is a Catholic Bible, designed specifically for 6th to 8th grades, that uses the color-coded Bible Timeline Learning System to reveal the story of our faith and God’s plan for our lives. This captivating program guides students toward a powerful Encounter with God.
It is more than a Bible study program. It is a life-changing experience that speaks directly to the hearts and minds of middle school-aged kids. As your students are drawn into this story they will come to a new and profound understanding of who God is. Most importantly they will see God not as a distant doctrinal concept, but as a loving Father who desires a meaningful and lasting encounter with them.
