K-2: Sunday morning 9:00-10:00am
3-5: (2 options) Sundays 9:00-10:00am and/or Wednesdays 4:30-5:30
K-2: This begins our journey with classes at church, discovering who God is, how much He loves us and the beautiful Church family He gave us! The second grade continues to be the AMAZING year when we receive Christ in the Eucharist!
These classes meet only on Sunday mornings, 9:00am.
3-5: This is a crucial time period where we GROW in our knowledge of Christ present to us in the Sacraments. The Sunday morning class (9:00am) will be taught within the framework of the liturgical year; learning from the readings each week at Sunday Mass. The Wednesday class (4:30pm) will allow more time to teach these kids to encounter God in prayer and Bible study. There will be a Bible Adventure section of the class plus a small time each week where they learn to be silent and listen in prayer. For a portion of the Wednesday class, we will teach baby steps in a common prayer style of the saints – Contemplation. Kids in these grade levels can opt to come to BOTH classes if they wish! Or pick just one! 🤗
Both of these options are exciting ways to create a solid foundation before entering their Confirmation class in 6th grade. GRADE 4: You will also have a family program implemented at home called “If u love me”. This is a diocesan-wide program for 4th grade students to teach the 10 commandments throughout the year, focusing on one commandment a month.
