"Religious education of young children should focus on helping the child to enjoy the relationship with God with deep awareness and great wonder."
The Good Shepherd and the Child: A Joyful Journey
Family Formation is a family-based catechetical program that helps families to grow in the transforming love of God by understanding and living the Catholic Faith.
Every first Sunday of the month from 9:30-10:45 students in Grades 1-8 meet in classes, divided by grade level, where catechists present the first lesson of the month. Parents gather in the parish center at the same time to learn about different aspects of the faith, engage in discussion with other parents, and receive that month's home lessons.
Through weekly Home Lessons, Family Formation helps parents pass on the Catholic Faith to their children and grow in faith and holiness. This model enables parents to be “the primary educators in the Faith.” [General Directory for Catechesis (GDC) 255]
