Faith Formation classes are offered for children as follows: 

Pre-School (age 3 ½ - 5)
Kindergarten / 1 ^st Grade
2 ^nd Grade (offering sacramental preparation for 1 ^st Reconciliation and 1 ^st Communion)
3 ^rd / 4 ^th / 5 ^th Grades
 
Each class is staffed by 2 Catechists (and Catechetical Assistants as needed). All utilize the Pflaum Gospel Weeklies curriculum to provide a lectionary-based approach to faith formation. Scripture and Catechism lessons are enhanced with crafts, play acting, games and discussion.

Faith Formation classes are offered for youth as follows:
Middle School (6th/7th/8th Grades)
High School (9th/10th/11th/12th Grades)
Each class meets within the context of the Sunday evening Youth Group meeting and utilizes the LifeTeen curriculum to provide a relational approach to faith formation.  In addition to catechesis, Youth Group also provides community building, service learning, and praise and worship.
 
All classes receive diocesan mandated Safe Environment lessons through the year.
 
Parents are the primary catechists of their children. In all that they say and do, they are passing on the faith. To this end we strive to work cooperatively with parents so that they are well equipped for this responsibility. We welcome parents into the classrooms, provide resources, offer faith formation classes for parents of children in sacramental preparation, and provide other faith formation offerings so that ALL can grow in their faith.
