Dimapur, January 15 (MExN): A three-day long Faith Camp for Catholic Children of St. Peter’s Church, Kiphire was held from January 13-15 under twin themes, - “Know God, Know Life” and “Deepen Your Faith.” More than 85 children attended the camp.
The Camp was conducted by Rev. Fr. Loyola Antony, Bro. Stephen, Sr. Cicilia and Sr. Angelle and the camp began with an exhortation by Rev. Fr. Ntonse John Lotha, the Parish Priest.
The participants were divided between Classes 3-7 and Classes 8-12 and the sessions included explanation on the topics; appropriate video shows on the lessons; and the subsequent activity on the subject matter, a press note informed.
Activity oriented approaches such as fill in the blanks, word search, jumble of words, coloring the graphics, and question-answer pattern were held to make the programme more interesting and enriching, it added.
Classes 3-7 dealt on ‘We Share God’s Love for Creation,’ ‘Ways to Say Thank You,’ ‘Jesus and Mary,’ ‘Our Loving God,’ ‘Jesus Forgives,’ ‘We Pray as Jesus Did,’ and ‘The Works of Mercy.’ Whereas the topics for Classes 8-12 included ‘The Sacraments of Baptism, Holy Eucharist and Confirmation,’ ‘The Sacraments of Reconciliation, Holy Matrimony, Holy Orders and Anointing of the Sick,’ ‘The Liturgy of the Word,’ ‘The Liturgy of the Eucharist,’ and ‘The Creed.’
