The goal of religious education is to lead young people closer to Christ. For too long, we feel like we haven’t worked enough with parents (you). But you are, beyond doubt, the most valuable resource and advocate we have for the youth and our ministry! We recognize the importance of you, the parents, in the lives of the Church:

“The role of parents in education is of such importance that it is almost impossible to provide an adequate substitute. The right and duty of parents to educate their children are primordial and inalienable.” Catechism of the Catholic Church 2221

“Family Catechesis precedes, accompanies, and enriches other forms of instruction in the faith. Parents have the mission of teaching their children to pray and to discover their vocation as children of God. The parish is the Eucharistic community and the heart of the liturgical life of Christian families; it is a privilege place for the catechesis of children and parents.” Catechism of the Catholic Church 2226

Updates on what your child (grades 6th-11th)  is learning each time we meet will be sent out, via email, to you on the day of the class.

Updates for K-5th will be sent home with the child after each class.

Please try to keep the conversation going to help reinforce the lessons.  Thank you for allowing us the prividge of working with your child!

A few times during the school year we hope to host "Parent Nights".  These nights will cover some of the issues your child might be facing with things like social media, etc... Dates to be announced.
