"Education in the faith by the parents should begin in the child's earliest years. This already happens when family members help one another to grow in faith by the witness of a Christian life in keeping with the Gospel. Family catechesis precedes, accompanies, and enriches other forms of instruction in the faith. Parents have the mission of teaching their children to pray and to discover their vocation as children of God. The parish is the Eucharistic community and the heart of the liturgical life of Christian families; it is a privileged place for the catechesis of children and parents.”

 Catechism of the Catholic Church #2226 

The Catholic Church intends for all Catholic children to be in RE each year until they are confirmed! Our mission is to help you as parents/guardians to nurture and foster growth in the Catholic faith of your children. This is accomplished with help from Catechists/volunteers of our Parish who give of their time and talents.

We are always in need of catechists. What is a catechist? The General Directory for Catechesis tells us that “The Church awakens and discerns this divine vocation and confers the mission to catechize. The Lord Jesus invites men and women, in a special way, to follow him, teacher and formation of disciples.” (GDC 231)

Are YOU being called to be a catechist in our parish community? Are YOU being called to serve and minister, to be a witness to Jesus Christ, to pray and to build up our parish community?
