The Eucharist – the Sacrifice of the Mass – is “the source and summit of the Christian life.” The liturgy is the high point of our lives as Catholic Christians and is the source from which we find strength to live as Christ’s people. From this celebration of the Eucharist we are sent in mission, ready to glorify God by our lives.
As such, all of our faith formation centers around the full, active participation of our children, youth, and families in the celebration of the Mass. Our Sunday 5pm Youth Mass serves as the center of our programs for our middle school and high school students.
The curriculum for Grades 6 and 7 is built to serve as a foundation to Confirmation preparation in Grade 8. We offer both traditional classroom instruction as well as a Family Cluster model. Regular and active participation in the Sunday Eucharist is a critical component of our Religious Education programs.
As always, parents are the primary educators of their children, and our Religious Education programs serve to support and enhance their important mission.
