Faith Formation Programs
(Religious Education)

Children's Religious Formation

The Religious Formation program prepares children for the reception of
Sacraments and seeks to set them on a lifelong journey with God.
Classes take place weekly for children in grades one through eight.
It also features Family Liturgies, service projects and a special
education program. Children in grades one and two are prepared for
the sacraments of Reconciliation and Communion. In grades three
through five, children learn about the beliefs and practices of the
Catholic Church, with emphasis on integrating their faith into their
everyday lives. Young people in grades six and seven are
prepared to receive the Sacrament of Confirmation in eighth grade.
The program relies heavily on volunteers.
