The Journey of Faith Series Journey of Faith for Lent Student Workbook

The Journey of Faith series is designed for ministry with the younger adolescent, roughly ages 10 to 13, and is based on a seasonal model of ministry developed in response to requests from our partners in ministry.

The Pray It! Study It! Live It!®: format in each chapter addresses the need for younger teens to learn about their faith and offers a variety of suggestions to help this age group participate in parish community life. Activities introduce participants to parish ministry and involvement through active parishioners who are willing to share their experiences and motivations with the younger generation.

These seasonal resources attend to the developmental needs of younger teens and focus on helping young people recognize their faith as relevant to their lives.

In this student workbook, Journey of Faith for Lent, readers take a closer look at this time of sacrifice, of reconciliation, and of fasting, beyond themselves to see the good in every person. The student workbook includes Scripture readings, reflection questions, and topics to discuss with friends and family members. Open spaces allow for writing thoughts or for drawing images during each season.

The leader's guide has several faith sessions and a retreat experience—to help young people enter fully into the expectation and the joy of the season—as well as strategies for encouraging participation in parish liturgical and community life.
