THE ACTIVITIES OF OUR CATECHISTS
At the younger ages, stories from the Old and New Testaments are taught, children's prayers are learned, and in general the children are acclimatized to the church spirit. This section aims to convey Christian experiences and experiences recorded in the inner world of children.At this age the child is already cultivating his character and has the need for essential church information and knowledge. This is where the first substantial acquaintance with God takes place and with this experience the child's personality develops more completely.
In combination with the game, the puppet theater and the painting and various activities the younger children spend creative and pleasant hours.
Our biggest youth fellowships made up of young men and women who gradually face the challenges of life have as a center of gravity issues of spiritual, youth and social concernAt the same time, the information on matters of divine worship and the analysis of the Gospel discourse continues.

In addition to the teaching of Religious courses and the coverage of various spiritual pursuits, it is worth noting:
The opportunity children have to entertain themselves (within our Spiritual Center) with use of computers, the use of television gaming machines, the use of board games and table tennis..
