Thus, Creation, 人类罪恶的故事, 出埃及记的经历, 先知的挑战, and the Prayers of the Psalms are intimately related to this history of salvation that continues in the power of the Holy Spirit, 是谁让我们在研读福音书时对耶稣有了更生动的认识, 以及我们在圣事庆典中与祂的相遇. 与此相结合,并补充了新生课程中引入的反思元素, 并再次得到校园部的协助, students will have the opportunity to become more personally involved in the following: (a) an understanding of the gospel in terms of Call and Commissioning which involves the student in a spirit of prayer and recollection, as it challenges him or her to seek after that Call to his or her life and find opportunities to live that Call; (b) to understand that the Gospel Message and the Mission of the Xaverian Brothers Sponsored Schools which involves a concern for the poor and a response by projects of service; (c) an understanding that students are writing their own life parables, 当他们在现代生活和生活的背景下看到圣经的信息. 在校园部的协助下,学生将在每个评分期间有服务要求.
