PROFILE OF THE SCHOOL AND STUDENTS
Our school St. Nicolas College of Business and Technology, City of San Fernando Pampanga is presently applying as a Catholic Institution. One of the requirements demanded by the Commission on Higher Education
(CHED) is to work for catechetical materials indicating on how to help our students participate more actively in our faith despite the fact that some of our students were not formed from Catholic School. In this Catechetical material that is to be produced, the students are to be assisted on how to really appreciate the Old Testament with the touch of Salvation History.
Specifically, the material aims at exposing the values that the students could possibly adapt from the teachings of the
Old Testament. Do they benefit from the evidence of our faith, history, and understanding of the nature of God and of man? Knowing that they are in the College Level, the context of the catechesis to be expounded is basically experiential in approach. It basically challenges the students to apply the knowledge of their faith in different human situations. The relation of the experiences of the people of God into the experiences of the students must be incorporated. Hence, the students must be able to situate themselves with the different signification of the biblical theme and context. An experiential approach to the Old Testament may be helpful in enhancing the interest of the students in the study of scriptures and may even guide them to response in the saving grace of our Lord Jesus Christ.
