Registration Form Revised 2026-27 Schedule

According to the National Directory for Catechesis, “Faith must be known, celebrated, 

lived and expressed in prayer. So catechesis comprises six fundamental tasks, each of

which is related to an aspect of faith in Christ....” 

 

  • Faith formation promotes knowledge of the faith. 
  • Faith formation promotes knowledge of the meaning of the Liturgy and the Sacraments.
  • Faith formation promotes moral formation in Jesus Christ. 
  • Faith formation teaches the Christian how to pray with Christ. 
  • Faith formation prepares the Christian to live in community and to participate actively in the Life and mission of the Church. 
  • Faith formation promotes a missionary spirit that prepares the faithful to be present as Christians in society. 

 

-- United States Conference of Catholic Bishops. National Directory for Catechesis. 2005. #20. 

* “faith formation” has been substituted for the more technical term “catechesis”  

 

Our program strives to accomplish all 6 of these tasks in each of our classes throughout the 

year.
