Abstract:
The main aim of this article is to consider the value of special liturgical services in
facilitating faith formation in children. Ideally liturgical rituals should be developed
and performed in such a way as to recognise, respect and involve the full spectrum of
human nature. This article focuses on 1 of 10 strategic recommendations developed
from empirical qualitative research in the school context. The article closes with the
pragmatic task by way of a proposal on the holistic design and use of liturgical rituals
in the school context to deepen its potential in stimulating and facilitating faith
formation in children.
