Prayer and Reflection:
This semester, students will have the opportunity to lead prayer 2-3 times in class. During the Lenten season, we will be participating in the fourth year of the Archdiocesan's Evangelization Initiative, faith sharing groups that reflect on Scriptures and Church History readings. There will be 5 sessions of these groups. Students will also have the opportunity to pray during first Friday Eucharistic Adoration in the chapel. One of the highlights of the course are fun topic Fridays where students can discuss current issues dealing with faith and morals.
