Classes are open to all 2nd graders of the parish who will be receiving the Sacraments of First Reconciliation and First Holy Communion. Regardless of where you go to school, you must register. Classes begin on September 11, 2022. Upon registration, families will receive the full year's schedule. 

Our sacramental formation program is called Pathways. It is a process of formation that seeks to meet families in their current situation, come alongside them, and lead them on a path home to Heaven. It is marked by a spirit of accompaniment as families work with each other, with other families, and with mentors to dive deep into the teachings of our Church. We will use this program to facilitate growth and guide families in developing their family faith life.

To learn more or sign up as an adult volunteer (prepare materials, assist with preparation meetings, help host receptions and assist with classes), please contact Abbie Andrus.

ASK is a series of informative sessions on the Catholic faith for youth up to 18 who have not received the Sacraments of Baptism, the Eucharist, or Confirmation. There will be the opportunity to be received into the Catholic Church at the Easter Vigil. It is also for those children who would like to further their knowledge of the Catholic faith.

Designed for girls ages 5 and up, this club teaches virtues through scripture, saints’ biographies and the Catechism of the Catholic Church. Based on the 1906 Catholic classic The Catholic Girls’ Guide by Fr. F.X. Lasance, and the spirituality of St. Thérése, the program has instilled in our girls a love of our Catholic Faith for over 25 years.

At the Parish of Christ the King, we aim to equip our families to build their domestic church by learning how to pray and live out their faith together. Growing in Grace is a family ministry that will help our families learn how to live in the rhythm of the Church and further enhance their faith life through everyday moments.

Through the use of the Pathways Family Formation Suite, Growing in Grace meets families where they are and walks alongside them on their faith journey. Utilizing beautifully packaged "boxes," your family will be equipped with resources sourced from the Word of God, Tradition, the Catechism of the Catholic Church, the lives of the saints, magisterial documents, and years of ministry with families. Marked by a spirit of accompaniment, participating families will work with each other, with other families and with mentors. 

All families need to register (even those who participated previously).
