ASIA/TAIWAN - Games on the Sacraments help children live the Year of the Eucharist

Friday, 29 April 2005

Taipei (Fides Service) - “Which is the most valuable of the seven Sacraments?”; “Who instituted the Sacraments?”; “What must we do before receiving a Sacrament?” These are some of the questions in a ‘holy’ quiz written by group in Taiwan called “Catholic Group for Religious Formation of the People of God” as a way to respond to Pope John Paul II’s call to increase awareness and devotion to the Blessed Sacrament in this special Year of the Eucharist which he left us.
According the Taipei diocesan bulletin Christian Life Weekly the group felt that a quiz game would be attractive as well as useful seeing that children find it difficult to understand deep significance of the Sacraments and their importance for life as Christians. Through the quiz children learn that the Sacraments are part of daily life, and especially the Eucharist and Holy Communion when Jesus Christ comes to visit them in their hearts.
