F.A.I.T.H. -Children's Faith Formation

F.A.I.T.H- Faith Alive in the Home is the parish program designed for the whole family to journey together. It offers greater opportunities to explore and deepen faith as a community while providing a strong foundation for children.

The base program is F.A.I.T.H. (Faith Alive in the Home). The family groups are arranged by grade levels (k-2, 3-5), middle school students will be with a catechist. For those families with children on multiple levels, parents can choose the preferred grade level.

Sessions are held on specific Sunday mornings beginning with 9:00 am Mass. After Mass a light snack will be provided followed by a keynote presentation. Family groups will then move to classrooms for small group lessons. The program will adjourn at 12 pm.

**Our Sacramental Preparation program (First Communion and First Reconciliation) will not change and is in addition to this program.

Children’s Liturgy of the Word Program (CLOW)

This program is offered during the masses on Saturday (4:30 pm) and Sunday (9:00 and 10:45 am) from mid-September through May, holidays excluded. There is no registration or cost for this program. Children from 3 years to kindergarten have the opportunity to hear and reflect on the Sunday readings at their own Liturgy of the Word.

Catechist volunteers facilitate these groups on the average of one Mass per month. We invite adults and teens to work with these children. Safe environment training is required. For more information, please contact the Parish Office at 303.756.3083.
