Catechesis of the Good Shepherd

 

This is an exciting new ministry for our youngest children. Catechesis of the Good Shepherd is an approach to the spiritual formation of children that is rooted in the Bible, the Liturgy of the Church and the educational methods of Maria Montessori. Children gather in an atrium, a room prepared especially for them, which contains simple yet beautiful child-size materials that help the child to absorb the most essential proclamations of the Christian faith.

In September 2018 we launched this program for children ages 3 to 6. Beginning in September 2019, we continued the group for this age, and added a group for ages 6 to 9 (1st to 3rd grade). For more information, please contact the coordinators, Lori Jensen or Brigid Gerard. (If you do not have their contact information, you may send a message via the church office.)
