Religious Education


Grades 6-12 Youth Registration Form

RELIGIOUS EDUCATION is amazing this year! New folks are always welcome. Just stop by, 7-9pm, on any Monday. Bring a friend!  We begin our year on October 6, 2008, at 7pm in the Parish Center. 

Our Religious Ed program is intended to augment the essential formation that parents and families provide in their homes and that our regular Sunday Mass provides. Our Monday Night Religious Ed is certainly not a typical Catholic School Religion class and our young parishioners who do attend Catholic School will find a fresh and exciting approach to developing one’s faith.  This year we begin working with Harcourt Publisher’s, “Call to Discipleship,” a web based resource for Catechisis. 

http://www.strose.com/youth/images/religioused2.jpgOn Monday nights, 7-9pm, October through the end of April -except Christmas, New Years and Easter Monday, we gather our 6-12 grade youth to experience and learn about their faith. Youth will spend the majority of their time in Small Community Groups with other young people of similar ages. The Middle School and High School youth often follow different tracks, but gather for large group time and Night Prayer. We also have Special Events, Parish Celebrations and occasional Topic Sessions that are important parts of the Religious Education experience. Night Prayer is an integral component of our formation.

We are ALWAYS looking for new young adults and adults to be Catechists or Volunteers in our Religious Education program.  Please contact Meg at 301-948-7545 x. 224 if you are interested!
