Religious Education

Religious Education

Our goal is to offer Catholic catechesis to the entire community of faith with a solid understanding based on Sacred Scripture, Sacred Tradition and the teaching authority of the Church. As members of the Body of Christ, catechesis provides the essential knowledge and experiences to become faithful followers of Jesus Christ, and to live the Gospel message through sharing the Word of God. In embracing our mission, the parish is dedicated to nurturing the community through charitable service and liturgical worship.
