Mission for the Family Faith Program
- The Christian Family is the first and primary place of education for faith, prayer, engaging the sacramental life of the Church, and growing in relationship with Jesus Christ.
- Our primary goal as a Religious Education program is to provide parents with the support to raise their children in the Catholic Faith and build a family life which is built upon and completely intertwined with our faith. We want to encourage and support daily family prayer, discussions of faith, love for Scripture and the Eucharist, and charity to all.
