Abstract: ABSTRACT In today's world, there is urgency in relation to the call for ecological conversion—a call that concerns present and future generations. Considering such a need, this project aims to strengthen the teaching of stewardship to Grade 7 students of St. Paul College Pasig. In this way, students are invited to recognize stewardship as a moral imperative—an opportunity for a hopeful encounter of finding beauty and joy in creation that reinforces an awareness of the interconnectedness of all creatures of God. Consequently, it also aims to enjoin them to take part in positive action to bring about change concerning the environment. This paper presents three ground plans—one for Doctrine, Morals and Worship—each following the National Catechetical Directory for the Philippines' methodological principles of integration, inculturation and communityforming. Drawing wisdom from Laudato Si, this paper hopes to provide students with a better understanding of creation that echoes the expressed commitment of a Church journeying toward ecological conversion.
