A message from TiAnna McCabe, Coordinator of

CCF Registration has begun. Please register your child for CCF and/or Sacramental preparation for First Sacraments or Confirmation. If your child attends a Catholic School, they do not need to attend Sunday School classes at this time. If they will receive First Communion or Confirmation in 2021, please register them for preparation now so we can plan out the classes. Please note that preparation for First Holy Communion begins in first grade. It is a two-year program. Confirmation preparation begins in ninth grade and is also a two-year program. If you have a ninth grader, please register them for CYM on this same form for opportunities to earn service hours and participate in youth group as part of Confirmation preparation in tenth grade.
We are totally committed to children and family catechesis at Holy Faith and are planning a Virtual Open House on September 27 for parents and children. Please join us via zoom. We will send the link as soon as we set it up.
CCF Virtual Classes for Grades Kinder through 9th Grade
will begin on October 4 2020.
Don't delay! Please pre-register as soon as possible since we will not have registration walk-up services when we begin. We need to prepare our class lists so we can communicate on how we will connect virtually and at what times for what grades. A separate email will be sent to all registered families.
