Our Children’s Religious Education begins with our two year Sacramental Preparation Classes. 

• First Year Classes are held on Mondays at 6:00 pm.
• Second Year Classes are held on Tuesdays at 6:00 pm. 

Classes are mandatory for the children and the parents.  

Another Part of our Religious Education program is a clear connection with our Sunday Mass.  We want you to experience the fullness of what it is to worship in Spirit and Truth according to how Jesus instructed us when he said, “Do this in memory of me.” (Luke 22:19)  We give journals to help you to take notes and booklets for your kids to keep the Church’s liturgical calendar.
