Children’s Ministry
“Train the young in the way they should go; even when old, they will not swerve from it.”
Proverbs 22:6
Through Children’s Ministry, we provide many avenues to help your children grow in love for God and neighbor:
Early Childhood Faith Formation, which serves families with children in Preschool (PreK 3 years and PreK 4 years) and Kindergarten:
These sessions are offered on Sundays from 9:30 am to 10:45 am.
Sessions will meet as scheduled in an environment that is fun for them to enjoy, and our dedicated catechists work with parents to help our youngest parishioners encounter Christ and His Church through the basics of our faith.
In our Elementary Faith Formation, our parish serves families with children in first through fifth grades with sessions offered on Sundays from 9:30 am to 10:45 am or from 3:30 pm to 4:45 pm.
All of these times enable families to attend Mass on Sundays at either 11 am or 5 pm.
Parents are the primary catechists for their child/ren. We have made a structural change:
For children who are preparing to receive Sacraments of Initiation, we require that at least one parent accompany their child to formation sessions. This benefits parents by helping them be more aware of what their children are learning and equips them to better evangelize their children on the journey of faith!
For children who have already received First Holy Communion, parents are not required to accompany their child to weekly formation. You are welcome to do so, but not expected to.
