Faith Formation

Welcome!  Faith formation is a life-long journey, which begins at our baptism.  Parents teach children the faith at home on a daily basis and are considered the child’s primary catechists.  We support parents and encourage the opportunity for children to gather with their peers, and their Faith Family, to augment what they learn daily in their homes about God, the teaching of their faith, and the Roman Catholic Church.  We do this by offering formal faith formation which includes catechesis, sacrament preparation, prayer, and service.

FAITH FORMATION 2023-2024

Our sessions will be held on Mondays.  Kindergarten-Fifth Grade will meet from 5:00-6:15 pm, and Sixth-Eighth Grade will meet from 7:00-8:15 pm.  All sessions will continue to meet for one hour and fifteen minutes.  This will allow us enough time to gather, grow, and pray! While class sizes have changed over the past few years, this will allow us to make good use of our resources, and offer more creative programming for both children and parents. 

As always, we are seeking adults and Confirmed teens to help in the program.  Volunteer catechists, substitutes, and hall monitors are essential to the success of the program.  If you would like to consider joining our team or returning from previous years, please let me know.  I would be happy to meet with you.

Complete registration information is mailed home in August to families registered in the parish. 

Gentle reminder, Baptismal Certificates for Sacramental Programs need to be included with registration.  Alternately, Baptismal Certificates can be sent directly to me from the parish of your child’s Baptism. 

I am committed to offering a solid and organized program of formation.  If you have any questions or concerns, please feel free to contact me.
