Everyone Is Special
The Religious Education of our young people is very important to the Parish Community. We offer Religious Education for grades 1 thru 8. We have very dedicated Catechists and Aides who are committed to sharing our faith with the young people enrolled in the Religious Education Program. We do believe that the primary Catechists for children are the parents. In order for the children to have the best experience it is necessary for parents to be actively involved in the Religious Education of their children by talking about matters of faith and sharing in the experiences of the children. Participating in the Sacramental life of the Church is also extremely important. We experience the Sacramental life of the CHurch by coming together as a community of faith to receive the Sacraments, most importantly, the Body and Blood of Christ in the Eucharist.
P.R.E.P. offers children the opportunity to learn about faith, their relationship with God and to be prepared for the reception of the Sacraments of Reconciliation, First Eucharist and Confirmation. It is quite evident that the only way a child can be fully prepared is by a combination of learning experiences - Religious Education Classes, The practice of faith at home and gathering together with the community to celebrate and receive God's loving gift of the Eucharist. For children who have not yet received the Eucharist, being present is an important part of the learning process as they watch others.
May we always accept God's gifts with open hearts.
