Faith Formation

“I love Faith Formation! My teacher is so nice, and I like learning about Jesus. I can’t wait for my sacraments!”  (Girl, 7)

“I thought faith formation was important most of all because I got to receive communion. I understand Catholic traditions and communion better than I did before. I also liked donuts on Sundays.” (Girl, 8)

“Children’s Liturgy of the Word is the best because we get to have fun while we hear the stories from Mass.” (Girl, 6)

“Faith Formation was great because I really liked learning about parts of the church, and I made some new friends this year.” (Boy, 11)
