As a people of faith, we are called to share the good news of Jesus Christ.
Catechesis – teaching the faith – is an essential work of the Church. Beginning in the home and permeating parish life, catechesis attempts to echo the faith in the liturgy, sacraments, words and works. St. Peter faith formation program presents rich opportunities for all parishioners to grow closer to God and deepen their spiritual lives, both on an individual basis and as a community of faith.Programs are offered throughout the school year for students Grades 1-5/6*. (*Note: Parents of those with children in Grade 6 are welcome to choose between Faith Formation or Youth Group for their child.)
