Sacramental Preparation & Faith Formation (Kindergarten - 8th grade)

  • We offer a comprehensive family faith formation program tailored for children in grades Kindergarten-8th, designed to initiate and nurture their on-going and continued faith journey within the Catholic Church. Our ultimate goal is to equip children with the necessary formation and provide ample opportunities for them to experience the presence of God in their lives.

  • Family Faith Formation sessions occur on the first Sunday of every month for both parents and children. During the second and fourth weeks, families engage in home sessions, strengthening their bonds and deepening their spiritual understanding. During the third week, on a Tuesday mid-month, Grades 6-8th attend the EDGE youth group, designed to cater to their unique developmental needs. One Wednesday a month, children in grades K-5th participate in grade level group sessions, activities and teachings tailored to their understanding and growth lead by our catechists.

  • In addition to our Family Faith Formation program, the Sacramental Preparation, a two-year program, is for all baptized children in grades 1-8th. While enrolled & participating in our Family Faith Formation, in Year 2 of Sacramental Prep., families will complete the Mend & Nourish at home curriculum. There will also be two morning retreats, parents included, to prepare your child in receiving the Sacraments of First Reconciliation and First Holy Communion.

* Sacramental Preparation requires the enrollment and participation in the FFF program for both years of Sacramental Preparation. This requirement includes all students; public, private, charter, Catholic schools (Serra) & Catholic homeschooled.
