The church recognizes that parents are the first and best teachers of faith for their children. Our program offers support and structure to the formation that is happening at home. We strive to integrate the meaning and message of the Word of God, the development of a community of faith, the celebration of Liturgy and worship, and to promote a life of service and discipleship.

We are working individually with families that have children in the Rainbow program to determine how best to meet your needs.

First Reconciliation and First Eucharist
Children are prepared for the Sacraments through participation in the Faith Formation Program while in 2nd grade. If you have a child older than 2nd grade who needs the Sacraments, we welcome them into our program. Please contact Madeline Fretto to discuss your child's situation.

First Eucharist Rehearsal
Celebration of the Sacrament of First Eucharist
The Faith Formation Program offers many opportunities for children and their families to fully engage in the Life of our Parish. One way is through scheduling Masses throughout the year where the children have an opportunity to be the greeters, ushers, gift bearers and more. We hope that you are able to join us for these special liturgies throughout the year!

Children's Liturgy of the Word (CLOW) is offered during the 11:00 Mass on specific Sundays during the academic year.
