R.E.A.L. Formation is a culturally responsive catechetical program designed for Hispanic youth. Many assume that this age group doesn’t want to open up or talk about God. But what if the issue isn’t the students — What if it’s the way the material is presented?
The R.E.A.L. Formation Participant Book is designed for them — not just to teach the faith, but to make it relevant to their lives. It has been written for high school students and is intended to lead them into early adulthood — even still it may be used for middle school, and many of the lessons have been effective with young adults as well. The aim is to be a Confirmation leadership development program.
Building on the foundation of belonging and belief established in Year 1, Year 2 invites young people to deepen their relationship with Christ and grow into their identity as beloved children of God. The year opens with the joy of encountering Jesus and the call to ongoing conversion, then moves into emotional self-awareness and an introduction to the Theology of the Body, helping participants understand their God-given dignity and the beauty of God's plan for their lives.
