Prayer
Prayer is an essential part of our growing relationship with God. Our Catholic faith is rich in prayer and encourages a strong prayer life. One step in this journey of prayer is to learn some of the basic prayers of our faith. In our religious education program, we have students learn prayers for each grade level by Christmas. The prayer breakdown is as follows:
Grade 1: Sign of the Cross, Glory Be, Angel of God, Hail Mary Grade 2: Our Father, Act of Contrition, 10 Commandments Grade 3: Apostle’s Creed, Before Meal Prayer, 7 Sacraments Grade 4: Rosary Mechanics (w/Joyful Mysteries), Hail Mary, Glory Be Grade 5: Hail Holy Queen, Our Father, 7 Sacraments Grade 6: O My Jesus, Act of Contrition, Apostle’s Creed Grade 7: Hail Holy Queen, 7 Sacraments Grade 8: Recite a rosary, all prayers included, with a set of mysteries of the students’ choice Grade 9: St. Michael prayer, Act of Contrition Grade 10: Memorare For the 2022-23 school year, students able to recite their prayers by October 5 will earn a special reward! All remaining prayer testing is due by December 14, 2022. **Prayer list last updated August 2021 ** Prayer activity sheets (and more) ** in progress
