FAITH FORMATION FOR FAMILIES
“Christ entrusted man to the Church; he entrusted man to her as the 'way' of her mission and her ministry. Among these many paths, the family is the first and the most important.”
– lETTER TO THE fAMILES, pOPE JOHN PAUL II
Formation in the Catholic faith for the entire family – parents, grandparents and children (pre-school through high school) – is a unique ministry focused on providing parents with the opportunity to grow in their relationship with Christ, to gain a deeper understanding of the Catholic faith, and to become an active member of the church community so that they can nurture and transmit the faith to their children.

Catechesis of the Good Shepherd (CGS) is offered for these age groups during the week:
Level I for ages 4-5 and Level II for age 6. Space is limited.
