Do you wonder if you are really passing on faith to your family? Worry that your children seem disinterested? Wish you had some new ideas on fostering family spirituality?
You Are NOT Alone!
As parents, grandparents or guardians we are always wondering if we are doing the best for our children.
Our Faith Formation program recognizes that it requires both the parish and the parents to form the children in their faith. The parish cannot fully form the children in their faith, and that the parents are the first and foremost teachers of the faith to their children. We need to be in a full partnership to form our children. We will offer various kinds of support and encouragement along the way to help you to build strong Catholic families.
This is page is for you as parents, grandparents or guardians, to help you, and inspire you. Please check back from time to time.
