Kindergarten: Knowing God the Holy Spirit |
|
This module introduces students to God the Holy Spirit as the third way of knowing God. The Holy Spirit is presented as an equal part of the Trinity with God the Father and the Son. Students will pose and respond to questions about the presence of the Holy Spirit in their own lives. They will learn about the coming of the Holy Spirit to the Apostles at the time of Pentecost and ways that the Spirit is God’s presence in the world today. Students will also be introduced to symbols and signs of the Holy Spirit and the special gifts of the Holy Spirit that help to strengthen people’s relationship with God. |
