Welcome to our Religious Education Program! (Pre-K4 - Confirmation)
REGISTRATION for classes starts in August each year. Please complete Registration and Medical Forms, which can be found at the church entrance or online. One (1) Registration Form is to be used for all the children, however each child must have a separate Medical Form.
Return forms to the Contacts listed above or place them in an envelope and put them in the collection basket.
The Church teaches that families are the first teachers of faith to their children. Faith is intended to be passed on from generation to generation. This is how Jesus learned!
Religious Ed includes regular Sunday classes from 8:30 - 9:45 in the Religious Education Center and uses curriculum from Loyola Press.
FInding God: Our Response to God's Gifts integrates the fundamental themes of the Catechism of the Catholic Church as well as Scripture, prayer and Church Tradition, nurturing children every step of the way on their journey to becoming disciples of Jesus. Finding God engages the whole child - mind, heart, and soul, guiding children to practice prayer and reflection, to explore Scripture, and to find God in all things.
Sacraments
After Baptism, the two other sacraments of initiation are First Communion and Confirmation.
First Communion Classes are at the same time as regular CCE classes. These classes are for children who are in 2nd Grade and above. Classes begin in August and children receive their First Communion in the spring.
Confirmation Classes are on Sunday mornings during regular CCE classes. This is a two year process beginning in 9th grade.
