Faith Formation is a lifetime journey for everyone - at every age and stage of life. Since we believe that religious formation occurs within a family and community context, our thrust, educationally, is toward helping adults become aware of their own identity as baptized Christians and members of a global community and to lead them to celebrate this identity. We see our direct formal education of children as a complement to this essential responsibility of the family and community.

The Faith Formation Office invites adults (18yrs. and older) to serve as Catechists for children from 1st through 8th grade.   Faith formation groups meet in the parish center on Monday's & Wednesday's 3:45pm-4:45pm, 5:10pm-6:10pm and 6:30pm-7:30pm and Tuesday's 3:45pm-4:45pm & 5:10pm -6:10pm  Please call or stop into the office if you are able to help at any of these sessions.

Volunteer catechists are invited to teach small groups of around 10 children. We also have opportunities for volunteer catechists to work one on one with children who have special needs. Volunteers are also invited to assist at First Communion and Confirmation celebrations. The volunteer would greet the guests and give them a worship aid, would help the children to find their places, and would usher the people to Communion. .
