Summer 2

Dialogue and Encounter

In this branch, we will look at St. Paul’s commitment to announcing the gospel to the world and reflect on the gift of unity Christ gave from the beginning.

We will begin the dialogue part of the branch by exploring a little more about the life and work of St Paul begun in Year 2, one of the most significant figures in the New Testament.The Acts of the Apostles recount much of his life following his encounter with Christ on the road to Damascus. The thirteen letters or epistles attributed to him form a large part of the New Testament and the Sunday Liturgy.

The encounter element of the branch focuses on the five pillars of Islam. We will understand some ways Muslims in Britain today live their beliefs.
