We will begin Unit 2 understanding the importance of listening to the Word of God found in the Old Testament and the New Testament. We continue learning how to live the Ten Commandments and the Great Commandment. We learn how to make choices that show love for God and others and how to avoid sin. We recognize that God always loves us and shows us mercy and asks us to forgive others.  Although your child will celebrate the Sacraments within their parish, in class we prepare to celebrate God's forgiveness through the Sacrament of Penance and Reconciliation.
