Family Formation – Grades 1 thru 5
Meets twice per month with monthly Parent Session

Family Formation K-5 is a bi-monthly session for children and parents at the church.  At the first of the monthly sessions, children gather with a catechist by grade while parents receive catechesis based on the monthly theme and guidance on the home lessons.  This program’s unique format has the potential to draw your family together through the enthusiastic faith of your children.  Its creativity and simple concepts can make learning fun, as each lesson is written at an elementary level but with adult-level instruction to guide and enhance your teaching.  Parents do not have to be experts in the Faith, just willing to devote about an hour a week to quality family time in sharing the Faith.  The second session of the month with either be a family event or a session just for the student and catechist.
 Understanding the busy schedules of today’s families, the weekly lessons at home can be adapted to your own family schedule.  The lessons will provide the backbone for your children’s spiritual formation in these formative years.  This comprehensive program not only engages young children but also has the potential to draw families together and equips parents to do a first-rate job in teaching the Catholic Faith to their children.
 The Family Formation program is for families with first through fifth-grade children.  It follows a three-year liturgical cycle, is faithful to the teachings of the Catholic Church, is driven by Sacred Scripture, and references the Catechism of the Catholic Church.  It covers all tenets of our Catholic Faith.
