Children's Formation

Children ages 2-5 learn about the world God has created, they hear familiar Bible stories, and they are exposed to the signs and symbols of their Catholic faith. This is a Montessori based program that allows children to explore at their own pace and work with the materials and activities that interest them. Sessions take place every other week at the 9am and 11am Mass. We ask for a tuition of $25 for this program.  

Catechesis for children age 3-Kindergarten that is based on growing their relationship with Jesus the Good Shepherd. Children meet in the Atrium which is an environment intentionally prepared to facilitate hands-on learning, contemplative prayer, and an understanding of the Mass. The catechists are co-wonderers with the child as they are guided by the Holy Spirit with their questions and insights. Sessions take place 3 Mondays a month from 4pm-5:30pm. There is a yearly tuition of $80 for this program.

Children in grades K-2 are checked in before Mass begins and sit with their family until the dismissal. Before the Liturgy of the Word begins, children are dismissed to another room to hear the readings proclaimed and explained at an age appropriate level. Children return to their family before the Liturgy of the Eucharist. Children’s Liturgy of the Word happens every other week at the 9am and 11am Mass. We ask for a tuition of $25 for this program.  

Children in 2nd-5th grade delve into the Great Adventure Bible Timeline to learn more about the Word of God. We meet 3 Fridays a month. Tuition is $40.
