Children may begin the two years of first Communion preparation in 1st grade as a 6-year-old.
All sacrament preparation must be done within the faith formation program. There is no totally homeschooling option.
You will register for only one school year at a time, so you are only paying for one year's books at a time. You must register again for Communion 2nd Year.
Classes for 2024-2025 are full.
Please teach your children the basic Catholic prayers and help them memorize the prayers: The Sign of the Cross, Our Father/ Lord's Prayer, Hail Mary, Glory Be to the Father/ Doxology, and Blessing before Meals. These are some of the most basic teachings of the Church. A child must be able to make the Sign of the Cross for the Sacraments. They may learn the prayers in the language their family speaks in the home.
Baptism: Baptism for children ages 7-17 requires the children to be educated about our Catholic Faith and the Sacrament of Baptism.
