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. (Preschool and Kindergarten students also have the option of Catechesis of the Good Shepherd or Children’s Liturgy).
*For Kindergarteners – we are leaving it up to parents to decide which option they would like to use for this grade level. Kindergarteners may be registered for Family Catechesis (for Grades K – 6), Catechesis of the Good Shepherd (for 4-year-old Preschoolers – Kindergarteners – limited space), or you may choose to participate in Children’s Liturgy on Sundays at the 10AM Mass (no registration or tuition required for this option).
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.
