CALL TO FAITH

CALL TO FAITH is the religious education curriculum for kindergarten through Grade 5 students.  Elementary grade children experience a spiral approach to learning our Catholic Faith as the four pillars of the Catechism of the Catholic Church--Creed, Sacraments, Morality, and Prayer--are taught and developed on every grade level every year.  There is an emphasis on understanding the Scriptures, particularly the Sunday Gospel.  In addition to the Harcourt Call to Faith text, each grade uses the Pflaum Gospel Weekly to study the Gospel at their level.  The Harcourt Call to Faith program provides interactive activities correlated to every lesson on every grade level through the www.harcourtreligion.com website.  There is also a section for families and teens.  Grades K through 5 meet Saturdays from 9:00 to 10:30 a.m. 

Information about First Reconciliation and First Communion can be accessed at the First Reconciliation/First Communion web page.

Students in the elementary program participate in various special events during the year including the Marian Crowning in October, an All Saints' Service in November, a Christmas pageant in December, a Jesus Festival in February, and Stations of the Cross in March.
