Faith Formation

Picture
Dear St. Patrick's families,
We are praying for each of you and the new year that is upon us. We are happy to be able to offer faith formation for your children. We have an opportunity to participate in a Family Catechesis that lends itself for family learning. We acknowledge that you are the main teachers of the faith in your domestic church at home and we want to fully support you in that role.  God bless you all and let us continue to move forward with our eyes on Christ as our guiding light in these trying times.

Queridos padres, familias de San Patricio,
estamos orando por cada uno de ustedes y el nuevo año que está sobre nosotros. Estamos felices de poder ofrecer formación de fe a sus hijos. Tenemos la oportunidad de participar en una catequesis familiar que se presta para el aprendizaje familiar. Reconocemos que ustedes son los principales maestros de la fe en su iglesia doméstica en casa y queremos apoyarlo plenamente en ese papel.  Dios los bendiga a todos y sigamos avanzando con nuestros ojos en Cristo como nuestra luz que nos  guía en estos tiempos difíciles.

St. Patrick’s Faith Formation

 Mission: Our goal is to create a program of lifelong faith formation that is centered in and flows 
out of the events of Church life. It embraces all ages and generation, promotes faith growth at 
home and promotes participation in Church life. The goal of this ministry is to assist the parent in 
the spiritual formation of their child, for the Church recognizes the parent as the primary 
Christian educator.

The Religious Education Program prepares school children ages 5 to 17 years old in the faith. We 
start preparing for the Sacraments of Penance, First Holy Communion and Confirmation at age 
appropriate levels.  The parish catechists are dedicated, trained volunteers who are committed to 
serving the children of the parish, and assisting parents in the religious education of their 
children.  We do ask for a monetary donation for these sessions.
