Level 3 children are very interested in the mystery of time.   They want to know that they are part of Salvation history and that God has a plan for them.  The Level 3 atrium deepens the children’s understanding of their place in God’s plan through the study of sacred Scripture, liturgy, and hands-on materials.

​Our scripture study in Level 3 begins with the history of the Jewish people.  The children will learn that, like the people of Israel, they, too, are in a covenant relationship with God. We will take a close look at Abraham, Moses and the prophets using a method called “typology”,  which teaches how the Old Testament points to Christ.

Children in Level 3 unpack the Eucharistic Liturgy like never before as they study the prayers, responses and moments of the Mass. The children also reflect on the Sacraments of Baptism, Eucharist, Reconciliation, Confirmation, and Anointing of the Sick.

Other themes in Level 3 include:

 * A typological study of creation, the flood, and sin
 * The miracles of Jesus
 * Jesus’ teachings on morals and virtues
 * More and deeper studies of Christ’s parables                  
 * Learning  to pray individually and as a community.

Life in the atrium is one, big celebration!  We can’t help but rejoice as we remain on the True Vine!  For the last 60 years, CGS catechists all over the world have noticed that, as the children’s inner spiritual needs are met, they experience deep joy and lasting peace.
