Protecting God's Children - Save Environment

Catechists

A catechist, commissioned and supported by the parish and pastor, is entrusted with the important role of formally presenting the story of Faith to our children in a way that enables them to see and experience faith as a "living reality."

This ministry is open to any Catholic who has been confirmed, is actively practicing their faith, is in good standing with the Church, has taken a Protecting Gods' Children workshop, and is willing to participate in certification workshops.

Just as the pastor gathers the parish to celebrate and share in the life of the Spirit alive in the faith community, so the catechist gathers the children and creates opportunities for them to experience the meaning and importance of Jesus in their lives.

Catechists are trained for the following programs:

• Religious Formation for children
  Sunday mornings 900-9:50am (September-May)
  Monday evenings 6:15-7:30pm (September-May)
  
  
• Sunday School for 3/4 year olds
  Sunday mornings during 10:00am Mass (September-May)
  
  
• Liturgy of the Word with Children (LWC)
  Sunday mornings during 10:00am Mass
  
  
• Vacation Bible School (VBS)
  Generally during July

All adult volunteers are required to complete a criminal background check and attend a Protecting Gods Children workshop.
