OFFICE OF FAITH FORMATION

Children's Ministry
2023-2024 Calendar will be available soon

Fees

We charge a nominal fee that helps to defray the cost of materials your child will use in class each year. The fee does not fully cover the expense; our parish family provides the rest.

Payment is appreciated, but not required, at the time of registration. Mail or deliver your registration materials to our office. If you have questions or concerns, please contact us. We are here to serve the Lord by serving you!

PLEASE NOTE: No Child is refused. All are welcome regardless of financial status. Speak with our pastor or Faith Formation team if you have any questions or needs. 

 

Our 2023-2024 fee schedule is as follows:

  • $30 for one child
  • $40 for two (2) children
  • $50 for three (3) children
  • $60 for four or more (4+) children

Children must be members of the same household to qualify for the reduced fee.

 

Our Children’s Ministry continues the mission of Jesus through catechetical formation. We strive to help children develop a deeper awareness of who Jesus is and how much He loves them, all in the context of our Catholic faith.

We provide an inclusive program that responds to the spiritual, intellectual, social and psychological needs of our children. Sessions take place during Fall and Spring semesters.

Our Catechists and classroom assistants have all completed diocesan background screening and Safe Environment training. We are always looking for new volunteers for classroom help, special projects, and our Children’s Liturgy of the Word team. Commitments range from a few hours to a full school year, depending on your availability and interest. If you feel called to serve in any of these ways, please let us know!
