Children's Faith Formation

"The role of parents in education is of such importance that it is almost impossible to provide an adequate substitute. The right and the duty of parents to educate their children are primordial and inalienable."
-Catechism of the Catholic Church, No. 2221

The Children's Faith Formation program at St. John Paul II Parish became a totally at-home program in March 2020. During the school year, monthly gatherings take place for families. We have developed a curriculum for our parents to teach at home. The goal and spirit of our programming is to empower our parents to build a Catholic family based on faith, love, and virtues.   

The religious education program that we offer should just be one tool in your toolbox of educating your children in the faith. We plan to help build up your toolbox for you to create a home where tenderness, forgiveness, respect, fidelity, and service are the rule. 

Cost

• The cost for each year of children's faith formation is $50 per child, with a family cap of $150. This cost covers all program materials. Inability to pay never disqualifies a child or family from participating.
