2022 - 2023 Religious Education 

K - 5th grade

 

Religious Education (RE) is a ministry for children who do not attend St. Therese School to receive their religious instruction. In the past, RE was for children in grades 1-5, but the resources we used this past year included Kindergarten, so we will offer RE to the kindergarteners again this year but in person.

​

RE will meet on  Wednesdays from 6-7:15 pm in the Parish and Education Center (school). The core curriculum for RE will be using Gospel Weeklies published by Pfaum, a faith formation program. These resources are grade appropriate for Kindergarten and 1st grade, 2nd and 3rd grade, and 4th and 5th grade. Included will be a weekly “pamphlet” and handbook on our Church doctrine, that focuses the lesson around the Sunday readings while also learning what we believe as Catholics, the liturgy and sacraments, morality and prayer. The resources will also be available online with many more additional resources online. 

​

Preparation for the Sacrament of Reconciliation and Eucharist is included for all 2nd graders and children older than 2nd grade who have not received these Sacraments.

A parent meeting will be held in the fall for Reconciliation and in January for Eucharist and will have more information on the Sacrament preparation process.
