Religious Formation for Grades 1-9

Mission statement:
"Through Jesus Christ, we are aware of the responsibility to form the whole person, encouraging our members to live fully and conscientiously for the service of others. With Jesus Christ, we nurture personal and communal faith-life as a caring and supporting community through Catholic Christian education. In Jesus Christ, we urge our members to recognize and share their gifts, striving to be effective witnesses in the community."

The purpose of the Sacred Heart Religious Formation Program:
To assist parents in the religious formation of their children by setting before them Christian adults who, by their commitment to service in the church, will inspire and promote opportunities which will lead the young to faith in Jesus Christ. To inspire and assist young people to choose to live their faith in the Catholic Church. To motivate adults to increase and enrich their faith in God and the Church so they can be witnesses of Gospel love, justice and mercy to all.
