The first catechists in any child’s life are the family members with whom he or she lives. What happens at home – both positive and negative – provides lessons for life. In the family, faith is shared as part of the unfolding of daily life. The home or “domestic church” provides a real place in which a child learns to live his or her faith as well as understanding it.
Our program uses traditional methods of catechesis along with faith formation that encourages whole family participation. We provide Family catechesis nights throughout the year which are fun, engaging, and promote parental involvement in the formation of their children.
Our goal is to create a program of lifelong faith formation that is centered in and flows out of the events of Church life. It will embrace all ages and generations, promote faith growth at home, and promote participation in Church life.
