Grades 1-6
St. Malachy Religious Education
At St. Malachy's we are using A Family of Faith by Sophia Press for Grades 1, 3-6.
Our religious education program will take place primarily in the domestic Church, that is, in your own home. We will together continue on our adventure in bringing parents and children together to discuss our faith in our Loving God. As parents, we are our children’s first and most influential teachers. We cannot even help but teach our kids, and are doing so every day whether we realize it or not! This year we aim to take a collective deep breath and spend some time together learning about the Sacraments—the way that God reaches out into our lives to give us help and a share in His Divine Life.
Families will receive a Parent Guide as well as Children’s Activity Books for each child.
Each month:
-
Parents will have the opportunity to come together in prayer followed by a short parent session in which we will have discussion and fellowship.
-
Families will be provided with a guideline for the month’s activities as well as a parent session video which will outline the month’s topics.
-
Families will submit a sample of their child’s work.
-
Families will attend a program-wide social event.
Each week:
-
Families will carve out a minimum of 30 minutes to sit down to complete the monthly activities.
-
Families will attend Mass.
We are looking for volunteers to help with our social events during the year. If you are interested in helping out, please contact Camille Mainardi at stmalachyreligioused@gmail.com.
