Faith Formation Update 9.26.23
Tomorrow is the first Confirmation meeting of the 9th & 10th graders and at least one parent of each student. Join us at the Parish Community Center at 6:30pm on September 27. Find out what the year holds for you and your Confirmation student!
Plan on attending the Kick-Off event October 4, 6:30-7:45 at the PCC. Ran like a Faith Formation class there will be welcome time (family craft), instruction time (meet your catechist & what's new this year), snack time (never can go wrong!), Community time (games for the youth and meet your neighbor for the parents), and prayer time (that is why we're here!)
Catechists are still needed for grade 9. Are you able to assist one Sunday a month? Or just one time during the year? A team approach to 9th grade is being considered and you could be part of it!
Assistant Catechists are needed for grades 1, 5, 6 and 7/8. Please contact Thuy if you can help. There are a number of Catechist subs so the assistant 's duties include providing continuity if the catechist is absent, help with executing the lesson plan, get to know the students and help them to get to know each other. The goal is to have 2 adults in each class every evening. Even a partial commitment (every other week/after flag football season/when I'm not out of town on business) would be a help.
