    • Sunday Faith Formation

      Click here to Register Today! 

      Sunday Faith Formation is the parish catechesis program designed to support parents in their role as the primary catechists for their children. Children are enrolled in grades 1-8 classroom instruction with Sophia Press' Spirit of Truth text and PreK-K in the Catechesis of the Good Shepherd Atrium 1 (starting at age 4). The Sunday Faith Formation program uses curriculum from the Sophia Institute for Teachers and taught by volunteer parishioners who lead the class through prayer, discussion of the Catholic faith, and Sacramental preparation for where applicable per child. Do you feel called to be a catechist for Sunday Faith Formation? Please reach out to the Coordinator of Religious Education.  

      Sunday Faith Formation classes take place September - May. We welcome new families to our Faith Formation program throughout the year. Please contact the Coordinator of Religious Education for more information or to join a class at this point in the year.
