Resources from the McGrath Institute for Church Life at the University of Notre Dame. Teaching the Saints April Workbook – Free Sign-up Required
Turn to the witness of the saints to lead middle school and high school students toward a deeper sense of God’s invitation to follow Him.
In this free workbook:
- Use saint biographies and reflection questions to celebrate feast days in April
- Challenge students to put the saint’s witness into action
- Adapt worksheets for use in the school, parish, home or other setting
Teaching the Saints highlights the unique ways that God calls us to use our gifts to serve the Church and world. The workbook can be used for faith formation and Catholic education.
The saints selected for each month are drawn from the “Witness to Holiness” collection from Notre Dame Vision, a high school conference hosted by the McGrath Institute for Church Life at the University of Notre Dame.
