Faith Formation


"To fall in love with God is the greatest romance; to seek Him, the greatest adventure; to find Him, the greatest human achievement." -  St Augustine of Hippo
 
Our Faith Formation program aims to help our children and youth deepen their Catholic faith in daily living, by teaching as Jesus did: spreading the Gospel through discipleship, service, prayer and teaching God’s message, in addition to sharing the traditions of the Catholic Church. We have in-seat classes on Sunday mornings, 8:50-9:50 AM, for grades 1 through 6, Monday afternoons, 3:45-4:45 PM, for grades K through 6, Tuesday afternoons, 3:45-4:45 PM, for grades 1-6, and Monday evenings, 7-8 PM, for grades 7 and 8. We also have home instruction/whole family catechesis available, with regular Mass attendance and two family workshops required. ​
