The sacraments are God’s way of giving us his grace, his love and his forgiveness. To understand what it means to celebrate the sacraments we must first believe that we are loved unconditionally by God and that he wants to share his love and his goodness with us through the sacraments. The Alive-O Religious Education programme, used in our schools, helps your child to understand and experience God’s love through story, prayer and activities. The love that they experience at home is essential in helping them to believe that God always loves them. Your child knows that you will always love and forgive them no matter what. If this is true of their parents then they can only begin to imagine how much God loves them and how willing he is to give them gifts which are really good for them.
