Course Description for Religion
YOUR VOCATION IN CHRIST - God's Calling to Every Person
"Before I formed you in the womb, I knew you." (Jer. 1:5)
"No matter how uninterested in God you may feel, no matter how angry you might be at Him, no matter how much you ignore Him, disobey Him, or reject Him, He will not abandon you. He has a plan just for you - a plan that will fulfill you and bring you joy for all eternity. He wants you to know that plan, and He wants you to say yes to it. That plan and your yes to it is what this course is about: God's calling to you, your vocation."
-Spirit of Truth
Minimum Expectations:

Scripture
Becoming more familiar and connecting with the Catechism of the Catholic Church

Parents will assume all responsibility for making sure reading assignments are done on time.
Additional assignments (oral or written) will be given each semester. Completed assignments must be turned in on the deadlines given by the tutor.
Parents must help their students edit all writing assignments. Guidelines are given in the writer’s checklist that each student will receive. Elements of Grammar by Strunk and White is a valuable resource to assist you with this.
Students will attend class regularly and participate in the discussion. Prior notice of all absences is required.
Quizzes are not an optional part of the class. Students will be quizzed periodically on the material covered in the assigned reading.

ARCHES tutorial based classes are designed to supplement course work being done in home schools, thereby following the teaching of the Roman Catholic Church in proclaiming parents as the primary educators of their children.

Recommended for students in 9th-12th grade.
