The first catechists in any child’s life are the family members with whom he or she lives. What happens at home – both positive and negative – provides lessons for life. In the family, faith is shared as part of the unfolding of daily life. The home or “domestic church” provides a real place in which a child learns to live his or her faith as well as understanding it.
Our goal is to create a program of lifelong faith formation that is centered in and flows out of the events of Church life. It embraces all ages and generation, promotes faith growth at home and promotes participation in Church life.
Catechism classes generally span from September until April with registration in April and at the end of the summer.
Grades 1 - 4 meet Sundays from 10 AM - 11 AM Grades 5 - 6 meet Sundays from Noon - 1 PM Grade 7 (Conf Lvl 1) and Grade 8 (Conf Lvl 2) meet Sundays from Noon to 1:30 PM
The Catechism Office is open every Thursday (4 - 5 PM) and Sunday (9:30 AM - 1:30 PM) when classes are in session.
When students are going to be absent from class, parents must contact the CRE (Mrs. Kimmel) and make arrangements to make up the missed work.
