Faith Sharing is life sharing!

This traditional faith formation program is committed to sharing the richness of our faith and building family values.  Each weekly session includes stories, activities, scripture, prayer, discussion and reflection.  In the course of the school year, each grade level participates in a service project.  We hope to nurture our church community through those members of its body ~ our youth and their families.

Parents are always welcome to attend any or all sessions with the children.  There are interactive and supplemental materials for the family.  Check their website out:  faithfirst.com

Family Intergenerational Religious Education  (FIRE)

FIRE teaches within small communities where people of all ages gather together to learn and share about God.  Entire family members participate together (children ages 3 or older and parents).  This is the third year families have been involved.

There is always room for growth!  If your family would like more information or is interested in this faith-sharing model, please call Michelle at 624-5827, ext. 210.



Faith Formation Teachers

  All classes are taught by volunteers.  We are always looking for men and women willing to donate the gift of their time and faith.  Please consider the possibility of teaching in our program.  Training and support is provided.  If you are unable to donate an hour a week, there are a many other opportunities to assist with other short-term sessions!  Please call Michelle at 624-5827, ext. 210, if you are interested in volunteering in any capacity.
