Welcome!

Saint Kateri Tekakwitha Faith Formation

Traditional Weekly Classes & Confirmation Prep 
   
Grades K - IO:   Sundays,  starting 15 mins before each Sunday                                         Mass, and finishing 30 mins after each Sunday Mass

HOW IT WORKS:  

• Families arrive to the church 15 minutes before Mass begins--for a brief teaching on the Mass followed by prayer (a decade of the Rosary).  Students sit with their families before and during Mass.  This 15-minute lesson--and the Mass--constitute the first part of class and are essential to Faith Formation for the child and family at Saint Kateri this year.  Parents and students sign in to this portion of the class upon entry to the gathering space each Sunday morning.

• Immediately after Mass, students attend the K-10 classroom portion of Faith Formation for approximately 30 minutes each Sunday.  Parents of  K-5th students escort their children to their classrooms, where parents sign children in to class. 

• Parents are then invited to join each other in the gathering space for food, fellowship, and/or faith learning for the duration of their children’s faith formation session.

While we expect families to come to their selected session, if there is ever a scheduling conflict, K-IOth students may attend one of the other weekend Masses or Sunday classroom sessions with prior notice to the Faith Formation Office.  See the class times below:
 

Sunday - 7:45am-9:15am (includes 8:00am Sunday Mass)
 
Sunday - 9:15am-11:00am (includes 9:30am Sunday Mass)

Sunday - 11:15am-1:00pm (includes 11:30am Sunday Mass)
