Faith Fusion 4,5,6th Grade Preparation: Many leaders have indicated the need for a “catch up” curriculum for 4th-6th graders who have little to no previous formation. Our Sunday Visitor/Harcourt has responded to this need with an excellent new curriculum. Contact Peter Poppleton from OSV to order or review material. ppoppleton@osv.com
