Child Faith Formation

Picture
We desire that you and your family make the decision to form your children to know, love, and follow our Savior Jesus Christ. As your parish family, we stand with you you to encourage, support, and love you!

However, the parish alone cannot teach your children everything they will need to become disciples of Christ.
A common assumption in our culture is that the teaching of the faith is mostly the responsibility of the school or parish. However, our faith teaches that parents are the primary catechists to their children. Parents teach not only with their words but more importantly with their attitudes and actions. Children learn about the world, others, and themselves from their parents.

Saint John Paul II often referred to the family as “the domestic Church” because parents provide a child’s first and primary example of faith. Catholicism is seen in such a home as a way of life which pervades all moments of one’s day, rather than an obligation to be fit into one’s weekend schedule.

All of our formation efforts at Saint Clare of Assisi Catholic Church is focused on providing opportunities for the entire family to learn, pray, and grow in relationship with Christ. We want to partner with you and support you in your mission to bring up your children in the faith.

Opportunities for Children's Faith Formation

Picture
​A Montessori-based program for children ages 3-5 that utilizes a specially prepared environment and hands-on learning experiences to aid children’s learning and their intimate relationship with God.

Picture

​A two-year preparation program for First Reconciliation and First Holy Communion for children in first and second grade. We take a family-centered approach that deepens the role the domestic church plays in the faith formation of each child, providing opportunities for the entire family to learn, pray, and grow in relationship with Christ.

A youth ministry-style faith formation program for grades 3–5. Students enjoy worship, games, music, prayer, fellowship, fun, and service!  Clare’s Kids integrates fun and formation with worship and service, discipling our children and preparing them to take their place as active members of the body of Christ.
