RELIGIOUS EDUCATION FORM 2022/2023

Faith & Family Religious Education Program

The children in our Parish Religious Education Program learn about our Catholic Faith and discuss pertinent issues using approved catechetical texts. But sharing faith involves so much more! Our children pray together, participate at Mass, discover God in their daily lives, and respond to Christ’s call for compassion, mercy and justice. Parents and families are encouraged to assist and attend many events that we sponsor. Please refer to your calendar for details.
​
The Mass is the primary way Catholic Christians gather as a community. We thank and worship the Lord from whom all blessings flow. Given our commitment to MASS FIRST as a means of nurturing faith, we offer special opportunities for student and family involvement.

Our goal is to support parents and family members as they raise their children in the faith we share. To this noble end, we offer many Christ-centered programs, in partnership with families and supported by the prayers and resources of the parish at large. We invite all of our families to familiarize themselves with the many opportunities administered or supervised by the parish through the Office of Religious Education.
