Word of Life, by Augustine Institute is the JUNIOR DISCIPLES Faith Formation offering for grades 1 through 5. We open our sessions with prayer, read scripture together, discuss, play games, review what we learned using question and answer techniques to check for understanding, and close with prayer.

Our Word of Life Reconciliation and Communion sacramental prep program for 2^nd grade and up includes weekly sessions along with some additional gatherings. Please review our Faith Formation calendar and save the dates:

• First Reconciliation Parent/Child Retreat, Sunday, September 24, 2023, @ 1:00 pm, in Newminster Hall.
• Celebration of First Reconciliation, Saturday, December 9, 2023, beginning at 10:00 am in the church. A sign up Genius for all First Communicant families will be available to choose a time that suits your schedule.
• First Communion and Parent/Child Plate-Painting Event, Monday, February 5, and Tuesday, February 6, 2023, during our regularly scheduled Faith Formation classes.
