5 a little bit about the conquest Year 2 curriculum In Conquest, our curriculum is based off the real questions teens have about God, their faith, the world and themselves. Each weekly activity in the Team Leader Guidebooks gives the team leader a path to lead the team to discover the answer to the question. First, we turn to the YOUCAT to find a solid catechetical answer to the question. Then the team leader goes through the 6 parts of the Conquest weekly meeting, where they gain a better understanding of the answer of the week. Each weekly meeting has at least one game, activity or experience; relevant video clips; a gospel reflection to find how Jesus answered the question and at least one saint or inspirational story of someone who discovered the answer in their own life. The curriculum can be found in the Team Leader Guidebooks and the Team Leader USB, which has hundreds of printouts. This year we are using the YEAR TWO Curriculum Cycle and themes. The YEAR ONE curriculum will be used next year and has different themes and activities. The Conquest YEAR TWO High School Series is an in depth study of the YOUCAT with handouts each week that contain the YOUCAT numbers, gospel reflections, saint stories and some team discussion questions. new Conquest member kit receive a coupon for 6 free member kits when you purchase an annual membership! $22.95 each The conquest member kit is for the guys in the middle school and high school teams.
