Grades 7-8 

The Catholic Area Faith Community of Jesus Our Living Water provides Faith Formation for all children and youth ages 4-Grade 11.
The 7th & 8th Grade Program is a two-year program that consists of the following components:
  • Class time—Using the Our Sunday Visitor Curriculum, Faith Fusion—there are two years of study (Year I—Creed, Year II—Morality and Sacraments). Prayer is infused throughout both years.
  • Issue Nights—These are large group sessions that cover a variety of topics such as Peer Pressure, Self-Image, Prayer, Respect Life, Suffering, etc.
  • Service Nights—Making Adopt-a-Dog Scarves for shelter animals and providing shoes for children in Uganda, Africa through the Sole Hope Foundation.
  • Theology of the Body Sessions—7th Graders learn about the Language of the Body and our bodies as windows to the soul. 8th Graders learn about the differences between Real Love and Fake Love.
  • Parent and Youth Sessions—Each grade in Faith Formation has a total of two Parent and Youth Sessions throughout the year. The following are the dates for the 2019-2020 Faith Formation year:
