Welcome to the 2022-2023 year of Faith Formation! We are so excited to meet you and grow in our faith together! We all want our children to know and love Jesus, which is why we are offering new and dynamic programs this year to do just that.
Family Program
We will be offering a Family Program for families with students in Grade 5 and below. We will be gathering once a month for fun and engaging sessions, participate in family meetings at home the next few weeks, and then come back together at the end of the month for a Family Mass and social. You can find more information in the Family Program tab.
