Religious Education Classes for Children

Three programs are offered to prepare children to receive the Sacraments:

• First Communion - Children and youth who have received Baptism, and are at least 6 years of age.
• Confirmation - Youth who have received Baptism and First Communion, and are Sophomores in high school.
• Children's Catechumenate - Children and youth who are unbaptized and are at least 7 years of age.

Religious education classes will be taught in person on Sunday mornings from October to May.

Registration fee for all classes:  $60 for one child, $100 for two children, $120 for three or more children.

First Communion preparation is a two-year process by which we bring our students to understand the true presence of Jesus Christ in the Eucharist.  The first year is an overview of the four pillars of the Catholic Faith.  The second year is immediate preparation for them to participate in their First Reconciliation (Confession) and to receive their First Holy Communion.  

In order to register for First Communion class, parents must provide a copy of their child's  birth certificate and Baptism certificate.

Registrations are currently open.
