RELIGIOUS EDUCATION

Monday to Thursday
7am - 2:30pm and upon request, until 6:30pm

Families in all programs are expected to attend Mass weekly.

Welcome to St. Bartholomew the Apostle Roman Catholic Church Religious Education. Our goal is to assist families in the educational and spiritual formation of their children. We seek to reflect the love of Christ by understanding His Word, caring for all people and serving others in His name. We offer many opportunities to encounter Jesus through Word, Sacrament, and each other. 

Grades 1 -6 will work on an At-Home Family Faith Formation Program. A central website serves as a hub for all things faith formation. Lessons and videos to supplement the workbooks, along with a pool of resources to support families in living out our faith in everyday life are sent weekly. Passing on our faith to our families and children is not so much about memorizing concepts or passing a test.  It's a way of life.  Our program supports families not only in learning about our faith, but in living it!

Families with more than one child in Gr 1-6 need only go on to our At-Home Website which will have instructions for all of the students in the family at once.  Details will be sent to all families registered for classes.

Registration will begin in late spring 2021.

Families will be given a link to the virtual program where there will be a leader conducting a pre-recorded lesson.  There will be stopping points for families to discuss topics.  We will use a workbook for each of the sacraments.  Detailed information will be sent to all families registered.  Registration will begin in late spring 2021.
