The Lifelong Faith Formation program offers three learning options to allow your family to choose the track that will work best within your domestic church.
If you are unsure which option would be a good fit for your family, reach out to the Lifelong Faith Formation Director who can assist with choosing the path that will work best for you.
** Please note that if your child does not appear to be growing and progressing in their faith utilizing either remote or homeschool options, you may be required to switch to in-person only sessions so your child can benefit from leveraging a community learning environment.
Option A - you may register and participate in the in-person programs offered at either St. Matthew Parish, St. Thérèse of Lisieux Parish, or a combination of both led by our dedicated Faith Formation Team. This option allows you to work hand in hand with a seasoned catechist in the formation of your family.
St. Matthew Sessions held Sundays from 9:00am to 10:15amOption B** - you may register and participate in our remote St. Mary’s Press online programming overseen by a member of our Faith Formation Team. This option allows a structured program with available assistance from our Team but offers more scheduling flexibility.
This option requires four (4) in person sessions where parents and their children gather to review and assess progress and needs.
Option C** - you may register and utilize a faith formation/sacramental preparation program from the USCCB conformity list that works into your specific domestic church’s needs (https://www.usccb.org/resources, then use search term ‘conformity’). Mostly utilized by traditional homeschool families, this option gives you complete freedom in your families’ faith formation journey but does require more planning on part of parents.
This option requires four (4) in person sessions where parents and their children gather to review and assess progress and needs.
$25 per child which covers cost of curriculum materials.
