"Let all the children come unto me,
for the kingdom of heaven belongs to such as these".
~ Matthew 19:14
We are happy to welcome your family to our Parish Religious Education Program (PREP)! Our goal is to first instill a love of our Catholic faith into our children. God's love is offered to all and He provides for all of our needs. We are called to love all of God's creation through prayer, fellowship, and community.
We partner with parents, who are on their own faith journey. This journey changes and is unique to each individual. We therefore encourage all members of our parish to volunteer their time and prayers to this important ministry. As a community, we are preparing the next generation to become servant leaders.
PREP classes are offered:
English
Sunday mornings 8:30am-9:45am followed by the 10:00am Family Mass (grades K-8)
Tuesday afternoon 4:45pm-6:15pm (grades K-6 only)
Spanish
Sunday 11:30am-12:45pm followed by the 1:00pm Spanish Mass
Acts of Faith
All children will be required to participate in Acts of Faith.
They will receive a passport on September 17, Catechetical Sunday,
that will help them become involved in the Eucharist, their Parish and faith community, and service to others.
Grades K through 7 will participate in 9 Acts of Faith.
Those preparing for the Sacrament of Confirmation will participate in 15.
Families will be able to choose opportunities that work best for them.
We welcome your ideas and suggestions to help you on this life-long journey.
