Family & Teen Faith

Family Faith · Grades 1–5

Our Family Faith Program helps children in grades 1 through 5 grow in Catholic identity through strong family involvement, classroom faith formation, and worship with the Holy Family community.

Registration will be open June 19 through September 1 for the 2026–2027 school year.

Why It Matters

Parents are the most significant and lasting influence on the religious and spiritual development of young people. This influence is not only formative when children are young, it continues to guide them for the rest of their lives.

Catholic identity becomes rooted in children’s lives through the day-to-day religious practices of the family, the ways parents model their faith through their personal involvement in church life and Sunday worship, and through their conversations with their children.

How Family Faith Works

We are proud of our Family Faith Program, a traditional-style Religious Education program utilizing the Finding God series by Loyola Press. Family Faith is further enhanced by our talented and creative volunteer catechists, who engage students with joyful, relationship-based learning rooted in the Holy Family community.

Students meet in classrooms by grade, learning and forming friendships within the community. In addition, students are asked to attend and participate in our regular multigenerational Family Masses.
