Because Faith is best taught and lived out in the family, the Church calls parents to be the first and foremost educators of their children.
All parish families who are not enrolled in Catholic school are invited to enroll in Family Faith Formation at Christ the King. In this program, children meet with their catechists every other Sunday from 11:20am - 12:10pm in the school classrooms and parents meet for class in the school cafeteria. Parents will be given instruction on the information they will present to their children at home on the "off weeks" when class does not meet.
Catechism is provided for students in kindergarten through 5th grade.
For students in the second grade, this class will also provide catechism for their sacraments.
Classes will begin September 17th and more information will be sent out to registered families prior to the first class.
