First Eucharist & First Penance
The sacraments of First Penance and First Eucharist are important milestones in a child's faith journey. Through these sacraments, children encounter the love, mercy, and presence of Jesus Christ in a deeper and more personal way.
In First Penance, children experience God's forgiveness and learn the healing grace of reconciliation. Through prayer, reflection, and the celebration of the sacrament, they discover that God always welcomes them with love and mercy.
In First Eucharist, children receive Jesus in the Holy Eucharist for the first time. As the source and summit of our Catholic faith, the Eucharist strengthens our relationship with Christ and unites us more fully with the Church community. Receiving Holy Communion is the beginning of a lifelong journey of growing closer to Jesus through the Mass and the sacraments.
Our preparation program helps children and their families understand the meaning of these sacred gifts, deepen their faith, and prepare to celebrate these important moments with joy and reverence.

Grades 2-8 Family Nites
Our Grades 2-8 program combines traditional classes with a family faith-sharing gathering. The grade-level classes meet twice each month (starting with the 1st full week), with our Family Nites taking place the third week.
Students and parents attend our Family Nites together and take part in faith-sharing/learning activities based on a theme. (Siblings and grandparents are welcome as well!) Games, videos, projects, and prayer are combined to create an hour-long fun and faith-filled experience.
Faith is best learned and shared as a family. Encouraging and strengthening our "Domestic Churches", our smallest body of Christ followers, will help our youth understand that faith is who we are - not what we do.
We believe this family-inclusive approach to Faith Formation will help incorporate and empower parents, making it possible for them to embrace their role as the primary catechists of their children.
