Lenten Campaign 2026 - Catechetical Activity Sheets “We are born to be different”
CHILDREN WITH SPECIAL NEEDS AND THE SACRAMENTS
This year’s Lenten Campaign theme is ‘In the One, we are one’, which emphasizes the Accessibility and Inclusion in Society, that brings us in touch especially with those with Special Needs and the differently abled in our very midst.
​
In collaboration with the Archdiocesan Office for Human Development (AOHD), the Archdiocesan Catechetical Centre has developed 22-pages of Catechetical Activity Sheets, based on bible reflections and stories of saints who struggled with conditions that made it difficult for them to fit in with normal society. These activity sheets are suitable for children and youth of all levels which helps them to recognise that differences in the way we experience and interact with the world are part of God’s plan and to celebrate the diversity of gifts that has been given to each one of us by God.
