ELEMENTARY PROGRAM (Kindergarten through Sixth Grade)
Sr. Gabrielle of the Sisters of Mary, Mother of the Church will lead our Religious Education program for the 2020-2021 academic year. She will deliver age appropriate, relevant, and interesting lessons about our Catholic faith.
This year, we are excited to introduce the St. Mary's Press curriculum, Discover! Finding Faith in Life. This program focuses on active learning and divides the year into four sequential units. Each unit is structured around the four pillars of the Catechism: Believe, Celebrate, Live, and Pray, thus encouraging students to understand and live our common Faith on a daily basis. One of the great assets of this program is that the primary textbook is a Bible in readable English, so don't be surprised if your son or daughter comes home excited to crack open the Holy Book!
If you have any questions about our Religious Education programs, please email Sr. Gabrielle or call the parish office.
This is the process that prepares and welcomes the un-baptized or those baptized into other Christian faiths into the Catholic faith community. Children who have reached the age of reason (seven years old) are welcomed into the Church with the adults at the Easter Vigil on Holy Saturday. New inquiries, children and adults alike, are always welcome and encouraged to begin our process in the fall to allow a sufficient time of preparation before the Easter Vigil, 2021. For more information on any of these preparations, please contact the parish office.
