FAMILY PROGRAM: Preschool-5th Grade with Families
Location: Mary of Nazareth School Gym (St. Angela Campus)
Times: Meets twice per month on the first and fourth Sundays at 9:15 am-10:45 am
Our Family Program is a way for you and your child to be nourished in faith together. We begin every session with prayer, and invite familes to join us for mass at 11:00am following the program. The first Sunday of each month focuses on content. Children will go with their Catechists to explore their faith through a program called “A Spirit of Truth.” They will have time to bond with their catechist and children their own age. Meanwhile, parents will explore the Profession of Faith with a program called “A Family of Faith.” They will have time to discuss ways to include Catholic culture in family life, pray together and build community. During the two weeks inbetween programs, there will be materials for the families to work on together at home. The fourth Sunday of each month will be activity based for all to get to know each other and become closer to God.
