Signs of Our Faith
Signs of Our Faith engages children to explore ritual practices of our faith that remind us of these traits and values. This curriculum helps children understand the abstract concept of a ritual by naming rituals as signs of our faith. Rituals are defined broadly, so that naming and dedicating a baby is a ritual, but so too is befriending a new child at school. Through the concept of "ritual," children discover evidence of their faith in everyday actions and are encouraged to actualize or form into habit such traits as caring, welcoming, and making fair group decisions.
Signs of Our Faith asks young people to see themselves as leaders of their faith. They build experience performing and, at times, creating rituals to share in their families as well as the congregation, and are thereby positioned as co-creators of the faith.
