Welcome to the Religious Education program at St. Michael’s Parish. This program is designed for families of children attending public schools from Kindergarten through eighth grade. Your enthusiasm for sowing the seeds of faith in your family, whether at Mass, classes, lessons, traditions and policies will speak volumes to your children as they mature in their faith! We hope that our enthusiasm for faith formation is contagious and that you will always feel welcome in our office and program!
Class and in-person Mass attendance are very important for the children during this formation year. This should be the top priority on the list of things "To Do." We do not want children to be short changed when it comes to this preparation.
First Reconciliation and Communion are part of a two-year program. Children may begin their preparation in First grade and continue on to Second Grade where they are prepared for the Sacrament of Reconciliation and for the Sacrament of Eucharist. Children who have been baptized and are older than Second Grade are welcome in the Super Sacrament class. If your child has not been baptized yet and is over the age of seven, please contact the Religious Ed Office for guidance.

Thinking of teaching RE classes? We would love to explain to you how simple it is to lead a class.
It is fun to do it with a friend! For more information on teaching or registering for RE classes, contact Heather below.
