DIVINE DRAMA
In the beginning

This fall we will begin our 30 week journey into the Bible exploring the Divine
Drama. The Divine Drama is an intermediate-level course commonly taught
within one academic year (30 weeks). It is ideal for teenagers preparing for
confirmation, for an adult refresher course, or a new members class. Its 16
units on the complete biblical storyline (The Biblical Narrative) and 14 units
on the themes arising from scripture (Our Narrative) provide a solid
foundation for lifelong faith-formation.

In the beginning, God

created the heavens
and the earth.
Genesis 1:1

Confirmation students along with adults in the Gonvick Parish will join
together to study central themes in the Divine Drama. We will begin with

creation and end with Gods final plan of salvation revealed in the person of Jesus Christ. We will

It will be important for students to stay on task. At the end of each month I will collect confirmation
students workbooks and review progress. Although I will not grade I will keep track of your
progress. Parents are encouraged to attend the weekly Divine Drama course and actively engage in
the process through family discussion of weekly lessons.

Parents/students if you would like to sign up for a fellowship meal on the last class day of the month
simply go to the link below. Meals dont have to be fancy! They serve as a means to break bread
together and build relationships in the parish.
