Sunday Faith
Formation for age 4 through Grade 1
These children meet weekly during the 10:30 Sunday Mass. The
Word of God is shared with the children simply and creatively.
They participate in large group worship consisting of prayer,
song and story based on each Sunday's Scripture readings
followed by reinforcement activities in the class.
Registration is required.

sharing of the Sunday readings.
