Family Catechesis

Our format for Religious Education will continue to be referred to as a Family Catechesis Program for Grades K – 6. Lesson plans for weekly in-person classes will be based on work book lessons from the “Spirit of Truth” series by Sophia Teachers. We are committed to helping you, parents, share your faith with your children with once-a-month Parent Sessions and occasional Family Nights. In the Family Catechesis Program, we aim to walk alongside you as you share your Catholic faith with your children. (Preschoolers (4 yrs+) and Kindergarten students also have the option of Children’s Liturgy).

We need Catechists and Catechist Assistants at every grade level! Please consider serving the Lord by serving His children in this way. Sign up right on the Religious Education Registration forms – or email the Religious Ed Office.
