Sacraments of Initiation Learning Stations

Sacraments of Initiation Learning Stations

We encounter Jesus through the Sacraments of Initiation—Baptism, Confirmation, and Eucharist. In this lesson, young people will complete activities at 12 learning stations—each sacrament has four stations—that will deepen their understanding of the Sacraments of Initiation.

The free lesson plan packet includes instructions for how to set up learning stations that get children out of their seats and moving around doing simple tasks to learn about the symbols and signs used in each Sacrament of Initiation. The helpful supplies checklist will allow you to organize materials to lead a successful session. Mini-posters to display at each station and worksheets to help the children collect their knowledge are also included in the plan packet.

The Sacraments of Initiation learning stations can be fun and fruitful learning for a variety of age groups or during an intergenerational gathering.
