Book excerpt: If, as common wisdom suggests, young people learn best when they are fully involved in the process, it makes eminently good sense to use Learning Centers with candidates preparing for the sacrament of confirmation. Here Doris Murphy offers fifteen creative and formative centers. At each, young people and their families share church teaching, Scripture, prayers, conversation, and fun activities that reinforces the teaching. Topics covered here include the sacraments of initiation, the gifts and fruits of the Spirit, The spiritual and corporal works of mercy, Catholic social teaching, Church laws and moral choices, and mystagogia or living in the Spirit. These Learning Centers have been successfully used in a variety of parishes, with excellent results, because they accommodate a variety of learning styles and offer a unique opportunity for adults and young people to learn about confirmationtogether.
