A Note About Our Religious Education Program
Conversion of our hearts and minds to be followers of Jesus is a lifelong process. We are always on the journey.
At Sacred Heart we work towards our conversion through study and spiritual formation. We offer classroom study and other learning experiences for our parish youth. In addition to academic knowledge of our faith, we offer spiritual development opportunities for youth in the forms of Scripture groups, sacramental preparation, student retreats, and service projects. Participating in weekly liturgy is essential to our conversion process, all families are encouraged to attend Sunday liturgy together.
On the first Sunday of October, November, December, February and March, we invite all members of the parish - the young and the not so young - to join us for our Family Faith Festivals. These provide an opportunity for all ages to grow in the knowledge of their faith in a fun-filled atmosphere.
Rite of Christian Initiation sessions are held for unbaptized youth ages 7-18. Full initiation (baptism, confirmation and Eucharist) takes place at the Easter Vigil.
We are thrilled to be engaged with you and your family in this formation journey!
