Although our registration deadlines have passed and our program has started, we welcome you to join in at any time during the year with Project Nazareth. Please e-mail or call Aaron (contact info above) if you are interested.
6th-8th Grade Faith Formation:
While families are welcome to use Project Nazareth (see above) with their 6th-8th Grader if they prefer, we have also created a separate program. If you are not comfortable with Zoom or in-person sessions, consider adapting Project Nazareth for your children in this age group. Please contact me if you want to inquire more about this option.

2020-2021 Sacramental Preparation Schedules
First Reconciliation and Holy Communion Prep (2nd Grade)
PLEASE NOTE: Due to the pandemic, the First Reconciliation Services planned to be held in January have been postponed. We hope to hold these in late April in modified form once the weather and case numbers improve. However, as with everything these days, much is out of our control.
ALSO: First Communion Retreat and First Communion itself will likely not look like it has in years past, depending on the state of the pandemic. Churches can only hold a fraction of the capacity they used to right now. We will be making a determination on these liturgies as we get closer. Our apologies for any inconvenience and gratitude for your patience during these times.
