Sample Lesson Plans and Resources for Junior and Senior High School Age Students

These lesson plans are designed to be used in parish religious education and youth ministry programs and in Catholic schools. We encourage local educators to adapt them or to create their own resources to share the message of Faithful Citizenship.

The following six sample sessions correspond to the Adult Education/Small Faith Community sessions and the session for Elementary Age Students. One option is to make the sessions intergenerational where families and individuals of all ages gather for prayer and then break out into age appropriate groups. Or, these sessions can be done independently as part of a more traditional catechetical setting or in a Catholic school classroom.

• Lesson Plan A: Faithful Citizenship
• Lesson Plan B: Forming Consciences
