Our Faith Formation programs seek to help children, youth, and families of our parish encounter Christ and grow as passionate disciples who serve His mission by their lives.

We offer two children's Faith Formation programs - in English and in Spanish. Our English program meets in the school building and Ignatius Hall on Sunday mornings from 10:45 am – 12:00 pm and our Spanish program meets in the school building and Ignatius Hall on Sunday afternoons from 12:45 p.m. – 2:00 p.m.

Our Program

We use the Finding God program created by Loyola Press, a non-profit Jesuit ministry dedicated to
nurturing a lived faith. Finding God: Our Response to God’s Gifts reflects the inspiration of St. Ignatius
of Loyola and describes what Catholic formation calls us to do:

• recognize the presence of God in our own lives
• discern the presence of God in all people and circumstances
• recognize the presence of God in our experiences of God’s creation
• and live as people for others.

Finding God intertwines experiences in prayer, scripture, Catholic Social Teaching, and liturgy for
children and adults as individuals, as families, and as learners on a faith journey.

• Prayer nourishes a relationship with God.
• Scripture sets the foundation for the Authentic teaching of the Church that is revealed through both Scripture and Tradition.
• Catholic Social Teaching shows how our faith moves us to concern for others and a commitment to the principles of social action.
• Liturgy helps children connect their faith to the celebration of faith at Mass and invites all of the faithful to join in a more meaningful participation in the Church’s sacramental and liturgical life.

Within each grade, our focus is on God, Jesus, the Church, the Sacraments, lives of the Saints, and
Morality.

• Grade 1: God is our Creator and loves us as our Father.
• Grade 2: We prepare for the Sacraments of Penance and Eucharist.
• Grade 3: God calls us to live in community as members of the Church.
• Grade 4: God calls us to lead a moral life.
• Grade 5: Through the Sacraments, we live more fully in the Holy Spirit.
