Formation is life long. There is no such thing as graduating from learning about the Faith. For this reason, we offer Monthly Enrichment Time for adults and families rather than simply offering a children’s faith formation program. Our program is offered twice a month (the first two Sunday’s of the month. Adults will remain in the hall for enrichment, while children will move to classrooms on the 1st Sunday and then the 2nd Sunday, the children will gather in their classrooms for an additional lesson. Children will break up into age groups where catechists will engage in age-appropriate lessons. (more info and FAQs)

Prayers


Hail, Holy Queen

Hail, Holy Queen, Mother of Mercy,
our life, our sweetness and our hope.
To thee to we cry, poor banished children of Eve.
To thee do we send up our sighs,
mourning and weeping in this valley of tears.
Turn then, most gracious advocate,
thine eyes of mercy toward us,
and after this our exile,
show unto us the blessed fruit of thy womb, Jesus.

O clement, O loving, O sweet Virgin Mary.
Pray for us, O holy mother of God
That we may be made worthy of the promises of Christ.

Act of Contrition

O my God, I am heartily sorry for having offended you,
And I detest all my sins, because I dread the loss of heaven,
And the pains of hell;
But most of all because they offend You, my God,
Who are all good and deserving of all my love.
I firmly resolve, with the help of Your grace,
To confess my sins, to do penance,
And to amend my life.
Amen.
