Year 8 Sign Symbol and Sacrament

This term the Year 8’s have explored how to find God in the four sources of revelation. We have God in creation, God in scripture, God in human experiences and God in tradition. In there assessment the Year 8 students were challenged to consider how Catholic Symbols could be used to address justice issues in the world today. The following examples are from Year 8 Hollows:

This Christian symbol addresses modern issues such as discrimination. People should not be judged on their skin color or difference in appearance. Women should have equal rights as men, in education and in pay. This poster is to remind us that God is always with us and has suffered hardships as well.

Hands are often used in Catholic Sacraments, in our confirmation there is a laying on hands. This poster with a hand with a heart on top is a symbol of love and spreading kindness. It is meant for those people that are struggling to get by, and as a reminder to everyone to be kind and spread positivity whenever possible because it can really benefit society and the environment around us. The modern day issue that is being brought up is discrimination and hate towards others.

The modern day issue is global warming. Global warming is a very serious issue in our current day because the earth is changing for the worse. The light in this photo represents God as he is the light of our world.
