Overview – explanation of the content of the unit and how it explores the Salvation Topic and development of the Human Person
Guided through Prayer
Dear Parent(s)/Guardian(s),
The ability to make moral choices is one of the most important characteristics of human beings.
Moral choices are those about whether to do what is right or wrong. People make good moral choices when they choose to do what is right, and bad moral choices when they choose to do what is wrong.
The next Religious Education unit studies this ability to make moral choices, and how people can be strengthened through prayer to choose to do what is good.
The Religious unit begins with the human experience of choosing to do what is good. As people wonder at the Creator of people with this ability, many come to realise that God is good.
The unit explores ways Jesus chose always to do what is right.
One reason he taught his followers to pray was to help them chose to do what is right.
Jesus taught his followers The Lords Prayer (Our Father) as well as to ask Mary to pray to God on their behalf.
The unit then explores ways in which Jesus’ followers pray, including through movement, song, music and the visual arts.
Finally, the unit explores that as people pray, they can develop virtues, or habits of doing good. Followers of Jesus know they can be helped through prayer, therefore, to choose what is good.
