This week fourth grade is discussing the role of the conscience in making good choices.

God has given every human being freedom of choice.  We are discussing what that means and how it is up to each of us to make moral choices in our lives.  Making moral choices involves the following steps:

1.  Ask the Holy Spirit for help.

2.  Think about God’s law and the teachings of the Church.

3.  Think about what will happen as a result of your choice.

4.  Seek advice from someone you respect, and remember that Jesus is with you.

5.  As yourself how your choice will affect your relationships with God and others.
