CCD

St. Peter Claver’s Confraternity of Christian Doctrine Program (CCD) meets the first and third Wednesday of each month from 6:15pm - 7:30pm. The goal of this program is to provide a quality, Catholic-Christian education to all students from First Grade through High School. Each class is designed to familiarize the children with the teachings of the Catholic Church according to the level of their understanding. The teachers at St. Peter Claver have been trained in the ways of the Catholic Church and are certified by the guidelines offered by the Diocese of Lexington. The Sacrament of Confirmation is taught by our Parish Life Director, Deacon James Weathers, and the High School class is taught by our Parish Priest, Fr. Norman Fischer.

Below is the schedule of what is taught at each grade level.
