Class mem- ers, together with the Sisters, plan weekly meetings at which they discuss a variety : topics pertinent to today's living, including such themes as the death of God eory, the pros and cons of other religions, and the new moralism. Teenagers also have the opportunity to serve their churches through helping ith rummage sales, bake sales and church sponsored dinners, as well as with many tarity dinners and proiects at Christmas and other times.
