Word of Life is a comprehensive, multifaceted Pre-K–8 curriculum that calls children, parents, teachers, and catechists to conversion and transformation in Christ.
8th Grade (Confirmation Prep)
This year will be using the program Chosen: Your Journey to Confirmation for our Confirmation preparation. You will have the option to sign up for classes on Tuesday afternoon from 5:00-6:15, Wednesday afternoon from 5:00-6:15 and Wednesday evening from 6:45-8pm. There will be a community dinner offered between the two Wednesday sessions. Chosen: Your Journey to Confirmation has been used by thousands of parishes to present the Catholic Faith to teens in a way that keeps their attention as they prepare to receive the Sacrament of Confirmation.
Temporary pause to SRN youth groups
With the departure of Michael Renauer, pastoral associate for youth ministry, from the St. Robert parish staff in January (he has accepted a new position with another organization), gatherings of high school and middle school youth groups will be on pause temporarily. Weekly faith formation sessions for these age groups will continue and opportunities to participate in upcoming special events and retreats such as the SHINE Rally, Steubenville Conference and others will still be offered. Parents, please watch the bulletin and your email for additional information.
If you have questions, please contact Hans Whitmer, director of faith formation, HWhitmer@strobertchurch.org, or (616) 676-9111, ext. 117.
