Church of Saint Joseph

A Roman Catholic Community of believers in Babylon,

on the south shore of Long Island, New York

LEVEL 4  2008 - 2009 SCHEDULE

Christ Jesus, the Way has as its theme story Jesus’ Sermon on the Mount (see Mark 1:14-15, 5:3-10).  Throughout the year the children begin to explore what it means to be a follower of Jesus.  This text helps the children realize wherever love and care exists here on earth, God’s kingdom is already present.  All can help build the kingdom by following the commandments and serving others as Jesus did.  The Church, then, is made up of those people who continue the ministry of Jesus today.   Level 4 invites the children to follow Jesus and become active members of the loving servant Church.
