QUICK CLICK: REGISTER FOR FAMILY FORMATION & SACRAMENTAL PREP INSTANTLY
 

COMBINED IN CHRIST

As always, we at the parish are working to improve our programs to make them more effective for your kids and less crazy for your families. Starting in September, we’re combining Family Formation and Sacramental Prep (FF+SP) into a program for Kindergarteners through 5th Graders and their parents.

We’ll gather together for meetings twice monthly with special opportunities to get involved in community activities. We know – “two meetings each month?” – but trust us, it’s totally worth it! Here’s why:

• No more separate-grade-level, multiple-monthly-meetings for each 2nd and 3rd grade class!
• Our new cycled "stations" will keep all ages engaged!
• 4th and 5th graders will have a new relational ministry format, so (even after they've made their sacraments) they’ll really want to come!
• Middle Schoolers are invited to attend Thursday youth group meetings instead. They'll love Wyldlife, Bible Study, and more!  If they’d like to be involved in FF+SP, this is a great volunteer opportunity to help lead younger classes!
• Parents: you'll continue to have your own sessions and a chance to grow in faith as individuals and leaders of your families!
• You have your choice of day/location, no matter where you are registered as parishioners!

All-in-all, this is sure to be an improved experience for you and your children to grow closer to Christ!
