Our Faith Formation classes are designed to offer students insights into their own faith life, to show them that being Catholic is a full time commitment, and to help them live out Christian values in their everyday lives. As Catholics, we baptized our children into a faith-filled community and made a solemn promise to raise them in the Catholic Church. It is the responsibility of the parents to see that their children, not only attend weekly Mass, but that they also receive an education in the Catholic Faith. However, Faith Formation goes beyond those two requirements. Faith Formation is an intentional action that is integrated into the life of a family to include development of the whole person.

To that end the Middle School program offers many and varied ways for your youth to continue their Faith Formation.
