Spirituality Module

OBJECTIVE

The objective of this orthodox spirituality module is for students to gain a deeper understanding of the Our Father Prayer. This prayer has four parts so each week, students will look at each part in depth. Week 1, students will look at the first part which reflects the relationship and faith we have with the Lord and the recognition of the Almighty God. In week 2, students will reflect on God's kingdom in our lives and the importance of seeking His will and not our own. In week 3, students will focus on the meaning of the daily bread that comes from God. Finally, in week 4, students will look at how to overcome temptation and evil through hope, faith, and love.
