Philosophy of St. Bernard Religion Education Program

"What we have seen and heard we proclaim in turn to you so that you share life with us." John 1:3

We at St. Bernard participate in the Christian formation of the children of the parish. We strive to promote the growth of faith by sharing the Good News, by witnessing to gospel living and by providing an experience of a sharing and supportive faith community. Thus, we set the following values to develop in our students.

  • An awareness of God in our lives. A familiarity with prayer and a spirit of friendship with Jesus
    .
  • A deepening of faith and fuller participation in the Sacraments of Eucharist, Reconciliation and Confirmation.
     
  • A love of God's Word through the use of Scripture.
     
  • The essential knowledge of their faith, i.e. content and doctrine.
     
  • The formation of conscience and Christian values that will foster Christian living.
     
  • The concept of Christian community and the Christian dimension of spreading Jesus' love through Christian service.
