We will be seeking assistance from families as the program gets started. Let us know if you are willing to help on a rotating basis. Please make sure to carefully list any food allergies on the registration form.
Parental support: Parents are the primary catechists of the Catholic faith. We ask for your support of their formation by attending Mass regularly, by participating in the sacraments, by praying with them as they learn their prayers, by ensuring their regular attendance, and by helping them with their homework assignments.
Ministry Assistance: Faith Formation is an ongoing process involving the entire family. Please consider how you would like to engage in ministry for the parish. We will be sure to use your talents at the same day and time as your child/children.
