RELIGIOUS EDUCATION CLASSES

Starting each September our team of volunteer cathechists hold classes for grades 1 to 6  from 6:30 to 7:30 pm on Monday nights.

Parents are invited to an open session with their children from 6:30 to 6:45 pm, and are then welcome to stay for the hour to enjoy a cup of coffee or tea and chat with the other parents before they pick up their children.

We provide a safe environment and are careful to ensure that all students are supervised and have a ride home.

We use the "Called to Faith" curriculum which is approved by our Diocese, the Diocese of Victoria. It is exciting and we encourage parent involvement throughout the year in the program and events we offer. Our task is to assist the parents in providing a solid base of faith for your children to guide them in life's journey. It is the best gift a parent can give their children.

For further information or to volunteer as a catechist or assistant, please contact the Children's Faith Formation Coordinator,  Rosemary Kelly at 250 390-9396.

THE CHILDREN'S LITURGY

 ... is offered  for  children in Kindergarden to grade 3, during the Saturday 6 pm and Sunday 9am Masses. The children gather at the back of the Sanctuary at the start of Mass before processing to room 217 with their instructors for liturgical activities. They return to their parents in the  Sanctuary in time for Communion.

COMPENDIUM OF THE CATECHISM OF THE CATHOLIC CHURCH
