Elementary Faith Formation
We offer the following faith formation options for families with elementary aged children, grades Kindergarten-5th grade:Classroom Based Faith Formation (Led by a Volunteer Catechist)
Choose one session:- Sundays 10:30am-11:45pm
- Wednesdays 4:15pm-5:30pm
Catechists will assist parents in forming their children in the faith through the support of a weekly classroom program. If you intend to register your children for this option, we encourage you to look over the " Support Our Programs" page to see how you can share your gifts/talents to support ministry to the children and families of St. Michael.
See the "Classroom" page for complete class schedules and mark these dates as well as the additional family events currently scheduled in your family calendar now!Family Based At-Home Faith Formation (Parent Led)
Families who register for this option will be provided with posterboard for their year long "Grace Person" project, a student activity book and Parent instruction guide. Each month, from September through May families will be living the faith at home while learning and all according to their own schedule. This is a great option for busy families who want to grow in faith together but whose schedule makes attending the classroom program a challenge.
See the "Family Based At-Home" Page for the calendar of parent meetings/check-ins and mark these dates as well as the additional family events currently scheduled in your family calendar today!
Whole Family Catechesis Program (NEW this year!)
NEW! Whole Family Faith Formation is an opportunity to bring your family and your church family closer together. As you grow in faith together, children will be learning not just from the fun activities we provide, but even more from the example of the adult witnessing to the Catholic faith working in their lives. At each monthly session, we will gather, pray, eat, and present a topic. The topics are discussed separately. Adults receiving a speaker-guided session with support material while the children receive reinforcement and encouragement on the topic from their own catechist guides. Families will gather at the end of the night to discuss and to get their assignments for the month! While the sessions are geared for families and students in K-5, each session will leave you with whole-family discussion ideas to enrich your household on a daily basis for all generations and ages. Includes monthly Wednesday night potluck dinner and faith formation sessions (Sept-Apr) and family book guides.
