Grade 8 Unit 6: We believe in the resurrection of the body.

The students reflect on the human body as a precious gift from
God and on their responsibility to care for their body since the way
they treat their body affects their relationships with God and with
others. In studying the Catholic teaching about responsible sexual
conduct the students discuss appropriate and inappropriate
expressions of love and affection. The sacrament of Marriage is
presented as the context for total, lifelong and life-giving sexual
love. Using Gospel stories which touch upon the issue of
suffering, guidance is given to help students evaluate attitudes
toward suffering and identify Christian ways of responding to
pain.
