Course description: This is Part Two of a two-part course that examines the tenets of our faith, continues to teach new concepts, and helps to solidify and organize what students already know, empowering them to live as faithful witnesses to our Lord. There will also be an apologetic element to this course that not only allows students to ask questions that are on their hearts, but also teaches them how to respond to common objections about our Catholic beliefs and teachings.
