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.

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.

• Summer Mission Trip

  • The Summer Mission Trip is designed to take our students who are already involved in our youth ministry to a level of seeking or missionary discipleship. We intentionally design each day so that our students have multiple opportunities to encounter the Lord in authentic ways. During the day, the students and mentors will have the opportunity to help others in a hands-on approach, participate in construction projects, see Christ in others and those whom they serve, and accept their Baptismal call to be a part of the Body of Christ. In the evenings, they will have the opportunity for prayer, praise and worship, the rosary, adoration, reconciliation, reflections, Mass, and faith witness. This is an opportunity for students to take ownership of their faith and to experience the Church as the living Body of Christ. Previous locations include:

    • Hollywood, South Carolina

    • Bay St. Louis, Mississippi

    • Jackson, Kentucky
