Religion Teacher's Journal, January, 2009
Saint Mary's Press keeps on producing wonderful and creative resources for adolescents and this is no exception. It focuses on the four liturgical seasons of Advent, Christmas, Lent, and Easter and offers a 60-minute session for each, plus loads of additional activities. The readings, the games, the activities, the stories, the prayers—all offer young adolescents a deep spiritual experience of the liturgical seasons.
