“Let the little children come to me, and do not hinder them, for the kingdom of God belongs to such as these." (Mark 10:4-15)
Faith Formation Program (Sunday School)
The Faith Formation program is designed to assist parents in the formal training of their children ages 4 through grade 5 in the Catholic faith. In keeping with Diocesan guidelines, we guide our children to grow spiritually closer to God, through study, prayer, and worship. Preparation for the Sacraments of 1st Holy Communion and Reconciliation fall into this ministry. We always are looking for teachers and assistants.
Register for Pre-K through 5th Grade (download and print form) - Begins Sunday, September 14, 2025. All children and at least one Parent/Legal Guardian must report to the Large Classroom in the Church at 9:00 AM.
