The mission of the Religious Education program of Our Lady Help of Christians Catholic Church is to provide our children with the knowledge, experience, and skills necessary to develop and nurture their personal relationship with Jesus Christ. The program encourages the children to learn Catholic doctrine, prayers, scripture stories, traditions and practices in order to acquire a Catholic identity. The program strives to connect the teachings of Christ and the Church with the students’ life experience in living out the Christian life.
Many opportunities are offered to the children and youth of Our Lady Help of Christians:
Our Sunday sessions are conveniently offered to either precede or follow your family’s worship at Sunday Mass (not to replace it).
