HRT 3M1 - Mary Ward CSS

Every human being has faith. They just have different ways of expressing and practicing faith.

As Catholic Christians, we are engaged in a lifelong journey of faith. As in all journeys or trips, each day or each step along the way holds a different experience, a different moment of learning. In your journey of faith, you are at the stage of intellectual exploration. This is a time for asking questions and gaining knowledge about our faith. Studying our own religion, and other religious traditions, help us to define what we believe as Christians, while also gaining respect and understanding for other members of our community on a local and global level
