Lectio Divina is a classical form of Catholic Meditation for grades 2-8. We use passages from the Bible to guide students through each aspect of Lectio Divina or Divine Words from God. Students become familiar with the bible story or passage and are then prepared to connect deeply and personally with God through meditation, prayer, and contemplation.
