THEME: The Story of God's Love 

Word of Life kindergarten introduces the students to the truth about who they were created to be.  Word of Life offers a rich kerygmatic catechesis that both evangelizes and catechizes. Using a salvation history catechetical model, the series follows God’s own pedagogy of how he revealed himself to man, created us as man and woman in his own image, and continually calls us to live in close relationship with him.

Students will begin to understand their place in the story of salvation.  Through both the narratio of salvation history and a rich systematic catechesis, students will understand why we need a Savior, how Jesus came to fulfill the promises of the Old Testament, and why Jesus gave the Church and sacraments to his people—to draw us into a loving communion with him and each other.

Students will learn the Faith through Scripture.  The Word of Life series uses Scripture throughout the lessons and actively teaches students different ways to pray with Scripture so they can come to know and love God. By introducing some basic elements of lectio divina to children, the students begin at a young age to have a personal experience of meditating and praying with Scripture.

Each chapter includes a Family Faith page.  To encourage ongoing formation in the home, each chapter includes a take home page to equip parents to share the faith with the children. The short chapter summary, suggested prayers and discussion questions, as well as family life application provide a simple way to bring the faith to life in the home.

The Word of Life series fosters ongoing conversion of the students.  The teacher's manual is designed help to teachers effectively facilitate life application discussions and elicit a student response of faith for daily conversion.
