Because of the size of classes, parents are expected to offer their help in the classroom several times per year. Please sign up on the sheet outside the classroom door.
Children are expected to attend all the scheduled classes. As required by the Diocese of Yakima, attendance records will be kept.
Class attendance is not a substitute for Mass attendance. It is expected that all children will attend Sunday Mass weekly. Many of the classes refer to parts of the Mass, Mass prayers, Mass readings, or the liturgical seasons in an effort to help children better understand what they celebrate at Sunday Eucharist.
There will be monthly Parent Education opportunities available. Please consult the Religious Education Handbook for dates and times.
It is important for children to be involved in the life of the parish. One way is to be an Altar Server. A Training/Retreat Day for grades 3 to 5 and current Altar Servers will be offered on Saturday, November 4, 2017, beginning at 10:00 a.m. Please watch bulletin for more information.
Please see SACRAMENTS tab for detailed information about the sacraments of First Penance and First Holy Communion for elementary aged children.
