Religious Education - Family Faith Formation - K-8th Grade
Welcome to St. Patrick Religious Education.
Family Faith Formation Program 2020-2021
What to ExpectThis year may look a little different than in the past, but we are excited by the opportunity to help families grow and flourish in their domestic churches, teaching and learning the faith alongside one another! We believe this is God's heart and design for all our families and we are here to support you in any way we can.
How it will work:
We are still using St. Mary Press - Discover Program, with the Catholic Children's Bible and easy to follow Parent Guide.
All classes will be in your home, at a time and day that works for your family- 2 options.Choice 1 - Parent led (no technology), just follow easy Parent Guide with Catholic Children’s BibleChoice 2 - eLearning on-line module which can be completed by the child on their own or together, as a family.Both are followed by a Family Faith Discussion where you are encouraged to consider how you might put your faith into action, in every lesson.•Each lesson touches on one of the 4 pillars of the Catholic Faith – Creed, Prayer, Morality and Sacraments.- You will be assigned a Catechist to walk with you through this, they will check in with you once a month via phone (at a time set up between the two of you) and answer any questions that might come up in your Family Faith Session.
- Also, once a month, you are invited to join a zoom meeting with Nancy and 4-5 other parents (creating a small group community) where we can just check-in with each other and share Highlights of the month and challenges of the month – we would share a scripture, short reflections, and then pray for each other. These are scheduled to be from 20-30 minutes monthly. Again you can sign up for a time that is convenient for you.
We encourage ALL families to Attend Mass weekly - either on-line or in person. To better prepare for Mass, we ask that you look at our webpage Home Church Sunday - to get the readings for Sunday mass, have time to look at the Children's video to prepare for mass.-
- After mass there are questions for another Family Faith Conversation.
-
All K-5th grade program materials will be delivered to your home by your catechist or other RE Representative.
- All K-8th grade programs will begin with a zoom information gathering for parents during the week of September 21-23rd, walking through the process. Dates will be flexible and after you have registered, you will receive various dates and times of the meetings.
If you have any questions, please feel free to call or email me.
