Children's  Formation

Welcome to Children's Christian Formation

From the earliest Christians, it has been important to pass along our beliefs and faith to those who follow us. It is an important enough commitment that at Baptism, parents and God parents are asked multiple times if they are willing to take on the responsibility to ensure their children are raised in the faith. The Children’s Formation aims to help parents in this undertaking.

The Children’s Formation includes Children’s Liturgy of the Word , weekly religious education opportunities and Sacramental preparation for Reconciliation, Communion and Confirmation. Without a doubt, the greatest gift we can give to our Church is the assurance that our faith is being passed on to those who are to follow.

Registration packets for the weekly program are sent to parishioners over the summer. If you do not receive a packet, please call the office. Sacrament registrations are individual for each Sacrament, although interest can be expressed on the general weekly program form, ensuring you are sent reminders as the preparation programs draw closer.
