RCCT Faith Formation
Our family of parishes offers vibrant and faith filled programs and
extra activities that use a variety of teaching methods to help families
encounter Christ in our world and lead them into discipleship.
Recognizing that parents are the primary catechists of their children
and honoring the family as the domestic church we strive to offer
programs which encourage families and children to learn about their
faith and practice what we hear in the gospel. We help children and
young adults prepare for sacraments through family and individual
participation.

Sincerely,
Marie Sajsa
