”Let the little children come to me, and do not hinder them,
for the kingdom of heaven belongs to such as these.” (Matt 19:13-15)
The Parish School of Religion (Sunday School) assists parents in handing-on the Catholic faith to their children. Volunteer catechists meet with children in a classroom setting and promote knowledge of our beliefs, full and active participation in the liturgy, moral formation, and prayer life.
The classes are for children in grades pre-k through 9 who do not attend a Catholic school during the week.
The program begins in September and concludes in May.
Classes meet weekly on Sunday morning from 10:10 to 11:20.
