This is a program that offers children a comprehensive background in the basic tenets of our faith. The goal of our program is to be a strong support to the primary religious education that the children receive in the home. As part of the program, children actively participate in meaningful worship, in-depth sacramental preparation, and ongoing moral development. Catechist training sessions are also a vital part of religious education.

Classes are held either at the Parish Center or at Trinity High School. Children in kindergarten through grade 5 meet on Sunday mornings at a choice of two sessions which occur before and after the 10:00 am liturgy. Teachers use the Harcourt series, "Call to Faith", which is an excellent resource in church teaching and tradition. It helps to prepare students well to meet the challenges of today’s church and world.
