Religious Education
“But Jesus called for them and said, ‘Let the little children come to me, and do not stop them; for it is to such as these that the kingdom of God belongs. Truly I tell you, whoever does not receive the kingdom of God as a little child, will never enter it.”
Luke 18: 16-17
"Education in the faith by the parents should begin in the child's earliest years. This already happens when family members help one another to grow in faith by the witness of a Christian life in keeping with the Gospel. Family catechesis precedes, accompanies, and enriches other forms of instruction in the faith. Parents have the mission of teaching their children to pray and to discover their vocation as children of God. The parish is the Eucharistic community and the heart of the liturgical life of Christian families; it is a privileged place for the catechesis of children and parents."
Catechism of the Catholic Church, Canon 2226
Though the COVID-19 epidemic is halting the use of Parish facilities for religious education and faith formation, we will not wait or speculate, but in the contrary, become even stronger in our prayer, in our faith, in our love, in our service and in our peace, ever more authentic “domestic Churches” in which the word of God is received with joy, bears fruit in lives of holiness and love, and shines forth with new brilliance as a beacon of hope for all to see.
Starting on Monday, September 14, Corpus Christi will introduce and commence FAMILIES WITH CHRIST, an eight-month program that will involve the whole family in congregational life, online as well as in the church building, to empower parents and grandparents in nurturing and fostering growth in the Catholic faith of children and grandchildren, as well as their own.
