School of the Annunciation

The Theology of the Church follows firstly the themes and chapters of Lumen gentium. The biblical foundations of the Church from the Old Testament and the New are explored by the students in further depth followed by deepening understanding of the 4 marks of the Church, One, Holy, Catholic and Apostolic.  An appreciation of the Sacramentality of Christ and the Church leads onto the characteristics of the sacraments in general including sacramental grace.  Baptism, Eucharist and Holy Orders are given special attention to show the vital complementarity of the ministerial priesthood and the common priesthood of the laity in the ecclesial life of the Church.
