Youth Faith Formation
Assisting Parents in raising Missionary Disciples
2024-2025
Welcome! We are looking forward to a great upcoming year! Our programs help young people to encounter Christ and follow Him. We seek to partner with parents by providing young people a formation program where they experience Christ through the sacraments, prayer, devotions, and dynamic instruction which fosters an active and conscious participation in the Christian life.
Our Programs:
- Children’s Liturgy of the Word at both the 8:15AM and 10:00AM Masses (if we have enough volunteers)
- Weekly Youth Faith Formation for Kindergarten – 6th Grade every Wednesday from 6:00pm to 7:30pm. (Parents will meet on the first Wednesday of the month in the parish hall).
- Family Formation – K, 1st, 3rd-6th grade. Parents and kids meet on the first Tuesday of the month (6:00pm to 7:30pm) and take home lessons to do at Home for the next 3 weeks.
- Year I Confirmation – (Traditionally 7th grade) – Wednesday evenings from 6:00pm to 7:30pm.
- Year II Confirmation (Traditionally 8th grade but must be in Year I before registering for Year II) – We will be meeting about once a month in person and the other weeks in small groups exploring the faith. *Students need to have been in Year I Confirmation prior to registering for Year II.
- Special Needs Students Needing Sacraments – please call the YFF Office for more details.
- By Registering online you commit to:
~ Staying up to date on what your child is exploring each week.
