St. Mary Cathedral is happy to offer two programs to assist you in developing the relationship between your child(ren) and Jesus!

For children in 1st through 8th grade we meet Sunday mornings and use the "Spirit of Truth" texts from Sophia Institute in our classes. Through teaching and activities, our catechists present the Gospel and the truths of the Catholic faith. Our goal is to form disciples of Christ and have each child draw closer to our Lord through our time together. The class for those in 2nd Grade focuses on preparing for First Communion and Reconciliation. We use the Signs of Grace books from Augustine Institute to prepare for these sacraments.

For our 3 year old - 6 year old children we are doing Catechesis of the Good Shepherd . This is hands on learning using the Montessori method of education to let children have the freedom to contemplate and do the works they wish to do in the classroom. This method relies upon repitition and allowing the Holy Spirit to be the teacher of the children while the catechist is the facilitaor for His work. Classes meet during the week. Please contact Rebecca Kanclerz for more information or visit the Catechesis of the Good Shepherd page to enroll.

In Christ through Our Lady,
