Children's Faith Formation

Welcome to Children’s Faith Formation at Holy Family Church! Our mission is simple - to help your child grow in relationship with Jesus and His Church. Our experienced catechists will help your child(ren) to:

  • develop and deepen their love for Jesus,
  • learn about what it means to be Catholic, and
  • understand the value of living their lives according to the Gospels.

Class Information

Our Faith Formation classes are available for students in PreK4 through 8th Grade. We offer Sunday morning and Monday afternoon classes:
  • Sundays 9:00-10:00am
  • Sundays 10:30-11:30am
  • ​Mondays 4:45-5:45pm

​Please note: Children in First Grade for the 2023-2024 school year who are expected to receive First Eucharist in the Second Grade need to be enrolled in this year's religious education program.

Parents

You are your child's first teacher in the school of life and faith. Please join in our mission by:
  • Attending Mass each week with your child
  • ​Praying daily with your child and as a family
  • Promoting regular attendance at Faith Formation classes
  • ​Asking your children what they learned after each Faith Formation class
  • Sharing your faith in your own way
