Catechesis of the Good Shepherd
-
-
This faith formation is based on the hands-on style Montessori educational method. It uses a specialized room called an Atrium that is outfitted with hand-crafted items called materials or works designed especially to complement the child’s developmental stage and promote contemplation of our Catholic faith. Sessions in the Atrium are prayer experiences, divided into time for a 10-20 minute presentation of new material, and an hour or more to think, pray, and work with any material that’s already been introduced.

Our History
Money to create the works in the St. Luke Atrium was provided by generous donations from the St. Luke Men’s Club. Materials for creating many of the works were given by the St. Luke Altar Society. The former moms group members and their families and extended families offered countless hours of talented work to hand make and collect the bulk of the items needed for presentations. A video tour is available on YouTube.
