"Let the children come to me, and do not prevent them; for the kingdom of heaven belongs to such as these." (Matthew 19:14)Our Faith Formation classes are age-appropriate, characteristic of developmental stages, and start with God as creator of all and Jesus as the teacher of our way of life. They present the Bible as God’s Living Word. Children will learn about the need for prayer and worship, the Sacraments, and Salvation History. As Jesus grew in wisdom and grace, so do His children. Our classes are held August through April, coinciding with the school calendar as much as possible. Students are placed in their grade level class and attend one class per week. Each class is led by two adult volunteer catechists who have participated in the Diocese of St. Petersburg’s Safe Environment Program and have completed a Level II background screening.

Elementary SchoolWe offer three different traditional-style Faith Formation sessions as part of our classroom program. In addition, we also offer a special alternative-style Family Faith Formation session. Our sessions run from August through April and correspond to the school year.
Sunday Classes are designed to help busy families incorporate both Mass and Faith Formation classes into a single day. These sessions surround our weekly 10:30 AM Mass, which is a popular choice for our parish families to fulfill their weekly Sunday Mass obligation together. For early birds, it is easy to bring the children to the 8:45 AM session for Faith Formation, attend Mass as a family, and then grab a donut and some coffee before heading home. For those who prefer to sleep in, the family can attend the Mass all together, then grab a quick donut before our noon Faith Formation session.
Monday Classes are an option for parents with younger (elementary age) children who are busy on Sundays and in the evening.
Monday Family Faith is a great alternative option for families with children of all ages. These slightly longer sessions meet on Monday evenings, but only twice a month.Sunday Classes Monday Classes Grades 1-5 Grades 1-5 Family Faith (All Ages: Parents and Children Learn Together!)
