Faith Formation 2019-2020

Welcome back to another spirit filled year of Faith Formation! The parish theme this year is “Let’s Grow Together!” and fits nicely with the Archdiocesan Theme of “Christ is Alive!” We strive to live those themes and missions in every aspect of our lives, but also to instill in Christ’s young church, the magnitude of the calling – to love God and one another. The Church is a sanctuary amidst the darkness of the world, and your children need a safe place to find comfort and joy in the teachings of Our Savior.

To ensure the safety of our children, we are requiring all parents to take the Safe Environment Training through the online-only CMGConnect program. This is a quick and painless process that helps us maintain our commitment to keep all of our children safe. This is necessary in order for you to drop off and pick up your children inside each building, which will be the new policy for Faith Formation program attendance. We are committed to helping you complete this one-hour training and can offer time and opportunity to complete the training on campus or it can be completed in the comfort of your own home (for more information regarding Safe Environment training, please contact Leann Jerkins at ljerkins@hrccr.com or call 281-342-3089 x141).

Please join us at the Parent Orientation and Meet the Catechist Night on Tuesday, September 10 from 5:30 pm – 6:30 pm in the Parish Hall. This meeting is mandatory and will count as your child’s first day of attendance. We will cover all Faith Formation Rules and Guidelines along with Sacrament specific information, and provide you with the Faith Formation Calendar, so it is necessary for all levels of Faith Formation to attend (this means Elementary, Junior High, AND High School and all Sacrament prep classes).

If you have any questions, please feel free to give one of us a call or schedule an appointment. We are here to serve you the best we are able.

Joyfully in Christ,
