We look forward to providing your children the opportunity to learn more about our Catholic faith, so we can all "Live it, Love it and Share it!"  together for a lifetime. Thank you for your attention and assistance.

See you on August 18th! Class includes attendance at the 9:30am Mass followed by CCF from 10:40am to 12:00 Noon. More information can be found in our bulletin and website.

Also , mark your calendars for a required Parent Meeting with Sr. Adell, on Sunday, August 25 , in the Parish Life Center after you drop off your child to class (begins about 10:45am).
