Parents stand in for their children with their own faith, have them baptized, and serve as their models of faith. That means that parents should make it possible for their children to experience how valuable and beneficial it is to live in the familiar presence of the loving God.

Our Religious Education Program supports Catholic parents in their duty to instill in their children a strong faith and love for Jesus. As a parish family, we create a loving and caring Catholic atmosphere in which our children can grow in sound, Christ-like attitudes and values.
Our Program is an eight-year course of study, in which children learn what we believe as Catholics and how those beliefs guide our lives. They prepare for and receive the Sacraments of Penance, Holy Eucharist, and Confirmation.
