Development
The Catechesis of the Good Shepherd is a catechetical program for children in which every element is designed to be particularly suited to the developmental stage of the young child’s interior life. Children’s developmental stages each last 3 years, hence CGS is divided into ages 3-6, 6-9, and 9-12.
Spiritual Formation
A foundational principle of CGS is that children possess a rich interior life through the indwelling of the Trinity and are guided personally by the Holy Ghost to build a deep spiritual life. Also, the younger the child, the more their spiritual life differs from that of the adult.
Prepared Environment
In the meditative environment of the CGS Atrium, the 3-6 year old child will absorb very deeply various aspects of the liturgy, Scripture, and the Sacraments and truly interiorize the knowledge he gains in the context of his love for Our Lord, taking great joy in his Faith.
Moral Foundation
Responsibility
Love & Prayer
