Religious Education Religion classes for first through eighth grade students who attend public schools are held on Wednesday evenings from 6:45 pm - 8:00 pm. Instruction is also provided for students with special needs. Volunteer teachers help students develop an understanding and appreciation of their Catholic faith. Parents are encouraged to be involved by supporting their children and attending family events, volunteering as teachers or classroom aides, and serving on the Religious Education Committee.
Separate classes for 3, 4, and 5 year olds are held during the 10:30 a.m. Mass on Sundays from September through May. Volunteer teachers help children develop the basic foundations for Catholic Christian life.
For anyone interested in learning more about the Catholic faith, RCIA is a journey of faith wherein the candidates listen and respond to the word of God within the Christian community and grow deeper in their relationship with God and the people. It includes shared reflection, prayer and study, friendship with a sponsor, and celebrations of Rites in different stages. We welcome anyone who is interested in becoming a Catholic Christian or learning more about the faith.
Issues dealing with our Catholic faith are presented periodically by staff members, guest speakers or through the use of audio/visual materials. These presentations are publicized in the bulletin or announced during Mass.
All parishioners are invited to participate in this gathering to read, pray and study the sacred scriptures. Meetings are held the 2nd and 4th Tuesday of the month at 10:30 am.
