Sophomore Religion incorporates a study of Jesus Christ and the development of the Roman Catholic Church through the present day. The relationship between Christ and His Church is central to the Catholic Christian faith. The sophomore curriculum is designed to help the students build a real, personal, and faithful relationship with Jesus Christ as they grow to understand the gospel message through Sacred Scripture, the Tradition of the Church, and the teaching of the Magisterium. This relationship is realized even more fully as the students gain an understanding of what it means to be part of His one, holy, catholic, and apostolic Church.
