(© 2010) This text has been found in conformity with the Catechism of the Catholic Church.
Meeting Jesus in the Sacraments roots the sacraments as the definitive way Jesus remains present to the Church and the world today. It expresses concrete ways for understanding the sacraments, participating in their rites, and benefiting from their graces. The text is organized around the traditional definition of sacrament from the Catechism of the Catholic Church. This definition is clarified by arranging the chapters around four dimensions of the sacrament: memorial, celebration, communion, and transformation. Each of these elements offers students the opportunity for students to further their relationships with Christ and the Church.
Through regular placement of "For Reflection" panels and assignments that focus on deeper research, developing a personal and communal prayer life, and active transformation of self and society, this text allows students to come to know Jesus through participation in the sacraments and the grace of their effects. Selections from Catholic blogs and profiles of saints offer a practical application of the sacrament to teenagers.
Each chapter includes several special features:
- Panel activities that help the students foster total learning in
hands (service), hearts (prayer), and mind (academic challenges).
- Review questions for each main section.
- Several Journal Assignments for deeper thought and reflection.
- Key vocabulary terms set off in margin panels.
- A Learn by Doing project for each chapter that provides a
longer-term assignment.
- A Called to Prayer feature offering text from a prayer relevant
to the chapter theme.
This text was written in accordance with the U.S. Bishops' Curriculum Framework and follows Course V: Sacraments as Privileged Encounters with Jesus Christ.
