“Let the children come to me, and do not prevent them; for the kingdom of heaven belongs to such as these.”
(Matthew 19:14)
We encourage all parishioners to continue growing in the faith through our Parish’s Youth Faith Formation offerings. Together we help one another to personally encounter Jesus, deepen our knowledge and love of our Catholic faith, and explore ways to share our faith with others.
Parents have many impressive resources available for their children in pre-school through high school to continue to grow in their love of Christ and His Church. We are steadfastly committed to helping parents in their fundamental responsibilities as the first teachers of the faith and Domestic Church.
