WHY ENROLL YOUR CHILD IN FAITH FORMATION CLASSES?

For the faith of baptism to unfold, it is important that our faith is nurtured so that it stays alive and grows.

Parents are recognized as having the primary responsibility for training their children in practicing their faith. (Gaudium et Spes #48.) At Nativity, we are delighted to partner with you and your child on this journey of faith!  Children not attending Catholic school should be attending classes within a Faith Formation program from Grade K or 1 through Grade 8.

Parents - We Need You!

The single most important way to solidify your child's faith journey is by attending Mass with them weekly.  As we teach our youth about their faith and how to PRAY, SERVE, and GIVE, it significantly improves your experience here as you help us to be that good Catholic role model. 

As part of the Faith Formation program, families are asked to attend Family Faith Events, which are intergenerational family sessions that will help parents and children learn about our Catholic faith together.  These events (at least one per grade level per year) are held during class-time for your convenience.   In addition, families are asked to attend semi-annual Penitential services which include individual confessions.
