"Family catechesis precedes, accompanies and enriches all other forms of catechesis. Thus there cannot be too great an effort on the part of Christian parents to prepare for this ministry of being their own children's catechists and to carry it out with tireless zeal."
Catechesi Tradendae | Catechesis in Our Time
Our Family Formation Program is designed for children in grades K-7. The goals of this program are to encourage and equip parents in their role as primary educators of their children as well as to offer catechesis for the whole family so that the faith can be better expressed and lived out in the home as it is intended to be.
This year, we will be utilizing a new program called A Family of Faith by Sophia Institute. This is a four part series that follows the structure of the catechsim and provides opportunties for families to grow in their love and knowledge of Jesus Christ and His Church through age-appropriate activities and communal events that will take place throughout each month both in person at Divine Mercy and at home.
We are excited for you to join us this year and we are confident that it will be a very fruitful experience for your family!
