Religious Education - What do we Learn in 9th Grade?

[Back to Enrollment Page]

Our Confirmation class uses the Confirmation textbook for the Image of God Series provided by Ignatius Press.

9th Grade spends most of its time exploring the topics of Salvation History, Introduction to Apologetics, Confirmation, and Martyrdom. They complete Confirmation projects which were started 2 years ago, and take part in a Confirmation Retreat as well as Catholic Saint Skits. The Confirmation class is taught by the Director of Religious Education.

Topics covered in the book include:

The Early Church
Confirmation, The Sacrament
The Mystical Person - Christ and the Church
the Holy Spirit and Truth
Defending the Faith
Spreading the Fatih
Responding to the Holy Spirit
The Rite of Confirmation
