Catechesis for Children –K thru 5th Grades
Family Faith Formation teaches our children about their Catholic faith using Harcourt’s Called to Faith curriculum. Students are taught by teams of dedicated catechists and assistants and participate in faith building, age-appropriate activities and lessons, taking home each week’s lesson to share with their parents. Students periodically participate in outreach efforts to broaden their view beyond their classrooms and families.
In addition to the Harcourt curriculum used in the classroom, parents and students have access to the Harcourt/Good Shepherd website where parents can obtain additional information on the subjects taught and students have activities, games and lessons to reinforce what they are learning in the classrooms.
Models of Family Faith Formation from which you are to choose for your children:
- Home Study (for Grades K-12) meets as a family where the parent is catechist for their own children
- Small Church Community(for Grades K-12) meets in a home with groups of children of various ages
- Classroom Sessions (for Grades K-5) meets twice monthly for the formation of children to help them build “Firm Foundations in the Faith”
