Children's Formation
Each of us are an important part of the Body of Christ. The goal of the Cathedral's Religious Education program is to educate children in their faith, but also to create a community where children learn to live their faith by observing and participating in the lives of those around them. We do this by listening to God's Word with the children and by sharing history of Christians trying to be faithful to that Word. Catechists and students together try to enrich their understanding of what it means to be a Christian. We want to extend an invitation to enroll your children in the Religious Education program, to contribute your gifts to the program, and to take an active roll in the Body of Christ.

The Reference Program

Religious Education for Families at the Cathedral is a three pronged approach called the Reference Program. It consists of Creed, which is traditional classroom learning, Parents R&R, which is a montly program on raising faithful children, and Koinonia, which are community celebrations. The Reference Program meets on Sunday mornings from 10:30 a.m. to 11:45 a.m. during the school year. Preparation for the Sacraments of First Communion, First Penance and Confirmation is provided as part of the program.

Many volunteers are needed for the program. Please contact Samantha Thomeczek to see how you can help.
