Welcome to St. Mary Cathedral’s Religious Education Program! 

Formation Education for your child will begin on Sunday, September 9^th, 2018 at 9:40-10:50AM.  The program includes kindergarten through eighth grade classes, which meet weekly on Sunday mornings.

The image above is on the registration posters this year.  I formatted it so that the rays of light are pouring from Christ’s Heart onto the parents, catechists, and children.  This is to represent Christ pouring Himself out to each one of us, and our response to His invitation is to pursue Him and enter into a deep and intimate relationship with Him.  It is in this journey of entering into Christ and His Love that we discover our deepest identity.  What is that? It is what—or should I say Who--our hearts are longing for, and your children will discover what it is in Religious Education.
 
Throughout this Religious Education year, I challenge you to join us in our response to Christ’s invitation in our lives.  Join us by praying at home with your children.  Join us by reading the Bible as a family.  Join us by going to Mass and the sacraments as a family.  That way you too may come to DISCOVER YOUR DEEPEST IDENTITY.

Have a blessed day, and I look forward to the year ahead that I get to enjoy with you and your family!
 
 In Christ through Our Lady,
