Religious Education Classes for 2007/20078 starting in Sept.
 See "Dates/Events to Remember" for exact dates.

Religious Education classes are designed for on-going faith formation and for the sacramental preparation of children in grades preschool through 8th grade not attending Catholic school.  (Please note that youth going into the 8th grade and not attending Catholic school who already have begun Confirmation preparation still need to register for fall classes). 

 Participation in Religious Education classes for at least a year prior to the reception of First Eucharist (normally celebrated in the 2nd grade) and on-going yearly class participation prior to beginning preparation for Confirmation (normally celebrated in the 8th grade) is the recommended requirement for Sacramental Celebration. 
Also, in early Fall, bibles will again be presented during Mass to students enrolled in the 6th grade.

Religious Education classes meet once a week for the traditional classes and twice a month on Sunday for the family Religious Education classes.  Several options of class times are offered to parents
