Thanks all for getting our Faith Formation year off to a great start! As a reminder, our Tuesday classes begin at 6:30pm, if for some reason your child is arriving after 6:30pm, please remind them to enter the classroom quietly as most classes begin with prayer.
The October schedule is listed below along with information about our family sessions and various events coming up in the month of October.
For Sunday families, please note we've had a change to the calendar for our family session in March. Due to a conflict with the parish hall on March 3, our family session will be March 10. An updated calendar to reflect this change is included

Tuesday Family Night and Sunday Family Gathering:
We will be having our first family night Tuesday, Oct. 16 and family gathering Sunday, Oct. 21. The purpose of these sessions is to provide more opportunities for families to interact with each other - both parent to child(ren) and family to family. Each session will have components that involve parents talking/doing activities with their children as well as families interacting with other families. Because of this, it is important on these days at least one parent attend with their child(ren). If a parent is not able to be present, please make sure your child is paired up with another family and/or attends with a trusted adult (grandparent/aunt/nanny/etc.). See below for additional information about the format of each session.
Important Information for Families with children in classes on both Tuesday and Sunday:
Your family may attend either the Sunday or Tuesday session, and does not need to attend both. Please
RSVP by Sunday, October 14 which session your family will attend, so that we may plan accordingly.
Tuesday Family Night - Oct. 16 - 6:00-7:45pm
Optional Dinner in the Parish Hall at 6:00pm for those who are able. The parish will provide pizzas and we ask families to bring a side or dessert to share.
All families should check in at the Parish Hall by 6:30pm to receive their family rotation card and be present for opening prayers and announcements. From there families will rotate according to their schedule through three different stations in the church, hall, and classrooms. We'll close the night together in the church at 7:40pm with final blessings and a gift for all families.
Sunday Family Gathering - Oct. 21 - 9:00-11:00am
After the 9:00am Mass, families will check in at the Parish Hall to receive their family rotation card and be present for opening prayers and announcements (light refreshments will be available). From there families will rotate according to their schedule through three different stations in the hall and classrooms. We'll close the session together in the Hall just before 11:00am with final blessings and a gift for all families.
