GRADE 1: God Found Everything Good—God & Creator
God looked at and loved everything he had made and proclaimed it very good. All the heavens and the earth proclaim the presence of God who makes us, loves us, and wants us to be happy. We thank God for all he gives us by sharing with one another. In Grade 1, the faith focus is on God as our Creator and Father, on his creation, and on learning to care for his world. In addition, children will be taught to say the five essential prayers for all Catholics and will learn about saints, such as St. Francis of Assisi and St. Therese of the Child Jesus.

Dear Parents – We hope you will love the experience of passing along your faith to your child and perhaps deepen your own understanding of it as well. In order to help you do this, we recommend that before you download the lesson plan for each session, take a few minutes just for yourself – to clear your mind of the many worries and distractions that are part of being a parent. We recommend this 3-Minute Retreat as a terrific way to do this – it really works and it is really only 3-minutes long!
