“Curriculum in religious education must encompass more than the schooling context if it is to fulfill its aim of integrating persons into the life of the Church. Three contexts have been indentified as centers of focus for intentional religious education: the church (worship), the school (formal teaching), and the family\/community (praxis). It is the interrelationship and integration of education in these three contexts thats leads to wholeness.”<\/p>\n

We cannot understand our worship without knowing the Scriptures. Yet the same is true vice versa: The meaning of the Scriptures is disclosed in worship.<\/em><\/p>\n
