We encourage all families to take part in the catechesis of their children. It is a partnership between the parents and the Church.
Pope Francis directed that Catholics focus on Family Catechesis, including catechizing our children but also developing ongoing faith formation for parents.
“Love is shown by little things, by attention to small daily signs which make us feel at home. Faith grows when it is lived and shaped by love. That is why our families, our homes, are true domestic churches (Pope Francis Homily Philadelphia, on Sunday, 27 September 2015)."

We plan for the middle school youth to join the Diocesan Pilgrimage to the Basilica of the National Shrine of the Immaculate Conception on October 24th.
Parents are expected to join the pilgrimage with their middle school child(ren).
