Faith Formation and Religious Education for Children

St. Agnes Community offers many ways to grow your faith

For someone who is thinking about becoming Catholic, they can learn about the Catholic Faith through RCIA.

For adults who want to deepen their Catholic sense of spirituality, there are many groups to help you in your faith journey.

 

Some examples of these opportunites are:

  • Small Christian Communities
  • Mornings of Reflection
  • Lenten Reflection and Prayer series
  • Annual Parish Retreat
  • Scripture Lecture series
  • Annual Lenten Mission
  • The Highlands Five Advent Vespers

The Highlands Five is a collaborative effort of four other nearby churches in the Highlands area to share their gifts and participate in each other's events.

Children can develop their faith through various youth religious education programs.  Some examples of these are:

  • Sunday Nursery
  • Sunday Preschool
  • Liturgy of the Word for Children

Weekly Religious Education Classes - Call the Parish Office, 451-2220

The Religious Education Program is for students in grades kindergarten through eight who are not attending our parish school. Students attending this program will receive faith formation along with sacramental preparation. The calendar includes classes in religious formation set to grade specific benchmarks along with opportunities for music, art, formal prayer, guest speakers, and outreach experiences. Classes are held Wednesday evenings from September to May at St. Stephen Martyr School, as we cluster with several parishes. Certified catechists blend ambitious curricula with imagination and the opportunity to visit other churches and institutions. Parents with children not attending our parish school who are ready to receive the sacraments of First Eucharist, First Reconciliation or Confirmation are asked to call the Parish Office to receive information regarding this.

Parents of children in Grades 1-8 should contact Jacki Cecil at Jacki Cecil. for further information.
