Family Faith Formation
Open to families with children ages
2-9(Grades PreK-4)
“Accordingly, the definitive aim of catechesis is to put
people not only in touch but in communion,
in intimacy, with Jesus Christ.”
— Pope John Paul II from Catechesi Tradendae (On Catechesis in Our Time)
Family Faith Formation offers an opportunity for families of St. Benedict, whether in home school, Catholic school, or public school, to participate in twice a month faith formation where children meet with a catechist and parents meet together in small groups to discuss a theological topic related to what their children are learning. The aim and goal of Family Faith Formation is to bring together our families from various formational corners (public school, home school, and Catholic school) and provide an opportunity for community, faith formation, and prayer on a parish level. Family Faith Formation is also designed to support the “domestic church,” and provide opportunities for families to continue discussions on how to live out the Catholic faith at home.
Family Faith Formation is open to children ages
2-9 (Grades PreK-4). Children who are under 3.5 years old and not potty trained must be accompanied by a parent to their session.
