In light of the ongoing pandemic restrictions, the vast majority of our Faith Formation programming will be home-based throughout the 2020-2021 Catechetical Year. We hope to provide regular optional in-person social and service events as well.

Elementary Grade formation will focus on the Sunday Gospels and a weekly selection of questions from Youcat for Kids, which is a catechism for families. Over the course of the school year, you’ll read through this whole catechism together. We invite you to talk about the questions and answers in this book and reach out to us with follow up questions and clarifications. We will also email you weekly with optional additional resources like worksheets, craft suggestions, and YouTube videos.

At every level of formation, we will provide additional optional resources, occasional physical resources for your family to pick up, and optional in-person events so your kids will know their parish is also their spiritual family. We also want to give your family the freedom and flexibility to have one family faith conversation each week while still being able to gives your kids what they need for their developmental stage. We hope to have volunteers check in with your family by phone periodically throughout the year as well.

As always, please let us know if you need help personalizing this experience for your unique family. Our goal has always been not to bend your family to fit our program but rather to tweak our program to fit your family.
