Catechesis of the Good Shepherd Levels 1-3
Catechesis of the Good Shepherd is a Montessori
approach to the Christian Formation of children with the
primary aim of guiding the child into a personal
relationship with Christ. Children gather in the Atrium
, a sacred space set apart for prayer and meditation.
Through presentation of hands-on materials by the
Catechist, children learn about their Faith as
Anglicans, the Covenant, Biblical History, the Life of
Jesus, Parables of the Kingdom of God, the Liturgy, the
Liturgical Year, the Sacraments, and the Scriptures.
This approach is progressive with materials presented
over the course of several years.
Catechesis Level 1, The Good Shepherd Atrium, for
children 3 to 6 years old is located downstairs near the
Chapel and is led by Page Beary and Sam Buckley.
Catechesis Level 2, The True Vine Atrium, for
children 6 to 9 years old is located upstairs in the
room with the green door and is led by Annette Figueroa
and Jennifer Buckley.
Catechesis Level 3, The Kingdom Atrium, for children
9 to 12 years old is located upstairs in the room with
the red door and is led by Julio Figueroa and Liz
