Kindergarten-Sixth Grade

Elementary Children’s Faith Formation (sometimes called Religious Education, “Sunday School” or “CCD”) is designed to support children in their desire to learn and live their Catholic faith. We believe that it is in the partnership between the parish and the family that faith is most effectively passed on to our children. For 2011-2012 we have various options for your busy schedules.

First Reconciliation (Confession) and First Eucharist (Communion) Overview

Children in second (2nd) grade or older and enrolled in Faih Formation prepare with their parents for First Reconciliation in the Fall and then First Eucharist in the Spring. Parents along with the children being prepared will attend a meeting where they are trained and receive materials to prepare their child. Children and their parents attend a retreat and receive the sacraments at the end of each preparation period.
