As a part of our weekly Religious Education Program, we have two Family Faith Formation Sunday Sessions. One scheduled in the fall and one scheduled in the spring.
These sessions include the entire family (at least the enrolled child and at least one parent's attendance is required.) Attendance is required to complete our Weekly Religious Education Classes.
We attend a 9am Mass together, have a short fellowship and then parents and children attend a half hour Family Faith Formation Activity. The Activity is parent lead and all materials are provided.
The entire meeting (including Mass) takes an hour and a half. On the weeks that have a scheduled Sunday Family Faith Formation Meeting, there will NOT be a weekday CCD class scheduled (the Sunday Meeting is in lieu of that week's class.)
PurposeThe Family Faith Formation Sessions are to provide an opportunity for our families to center themselves on the Mass. The Eucharist is the Source and Summit of our Christian Life. As parents, you are the primary teachers of your children's faith. We want to empower you with the tools to share your faith with your children. We believe that the most powerful tool to build family faith is the Mass and the Eucharist.
