We encourage all young people in our community participate in Continue Faith Formation, by enrolling in Faith Formation each year after they received their Sacraments.

We inspire young minds to engage with their Faith.
Classes are on Saturdays 9:30 am throughout the school year.  

No matter how old or young, your faith is a journey to God that must be taken. If we stop for long on the way, we become stagnant and rigid. Not a great a place to hp growing.
 
It’s not uncommon for students and parents going through the First Communion process to fall into the mindset that First Communion is the last step of their religious education until they reach the age of Confirmation, and after which they “graduate” from having to be involved in the Church (or even having to attend Mass at all!).
 
According to the Catechism of the Catholic Church:
 “Preparation for First Communion should aim at leading the Christian toward a more intimate union with Christ and a more lively familiarity with the Jesus – His Body and Blod – in order to be more capable of assuming the apostolic responsibilities of Christian life.” (1309)
 
First Communion is the begining of life as a fully initiated member of the Catholic Church, the Body of Christ. With that comes a greater responsibility, not only to share your faith but also to be a continuing example of the faith in and OUT of Church. It is that simple and that challenging. We are now called to go deeper and deeper into our faith so as to grow in our relationship with Christ and His Church.

For those whose formation classes may be done, it is important to realize that your catechesis will never end. You will continue to be filled with questions, and your faith will grow by leaps and bounds if you respond with an eager pursuit of the answers. You can spend your entire life studying and reflecting on the faith.  As you grow older, you will discover more about yourself, your relationships, your God-given desires, and God himself. And you have a guide and helper dwelling inside you—the Holy Spirit.
