LEVEL 1    2008-2009 SCHEDULE

Christ Jesus, the Way has as its theme the story of Jesus and the little children (see Mark 10:13-16).  The theme is demonstrated throughout the year by showing the children that they are welcomed and loved by God’s only Son and by his Church.  The text tells the story of God’s loving presence in everyday life.  Level 1 invites the children and their families to follow Jesus and to be faithful to him.
