Worship
As part of the Church, the Catholic school is a community of believers who support each other in their experience of faith and life. The believer searches and fosters a spirit of prayer that enhances the relationship between God and believer. Within the setting of the faith community, the Catholic student has the opportunity to experience prayer as meditation, petition, liturgy, and as life lived in awareness of God's presence. Through the curriculum, each student is able to become more knowledgeable about the Church's heritage, doctrines, rites, symbols, values and great persons. This is the background that helps the student to:
- Understand and appreciate Sacred Scripture
- Understand and appreciate the benefits of the sacraments in daily living
- Appreciate the celebration of the Eucharist
- Develop a spirit of prayer and worship
As a reflection of the mission and message of Jesus, the mission and message of Catholic education is universal, unique, contemporary and oriented to the service of others.
