Religious Education
The purpose of our Religious Education Program is faith formation - the ongoing development of the whole person into the image and likeness of Jesus Christ. All Catholics are on a journey of faith formation beginning in the waters of Baptism and ending with eternal life with Jesus in heaven. Our Religious Education Program strives to provide a solid foundation in our faith, age-appropriate to the students in our program.

Mrs. Melissa Silka, director
Father Thomas Whitman, pastor
