St. Paul’s Religious Education welcomes all children to our program.
It’s never too late to begin learning about your faith.
“Education in the faith by the parents should begin in the child’s earliest years…Family catechesis precedes, accompanies, and enriches other forms of instruction in the faith.” (CCC #2226)
Faith Formation is offered for students in Kindergarten through 8th Grade. Classes meet on Wednesdays.
4:30 – 5:45 (K-5) and 6:30 – 7:45 (K-8).

Preparation for First Communion is a 2-year preparation process.
Children must participate for two full, consecutive years in a Catholic school or parish religious education program prior to receiving the sacrament.
Classroom preparation begins in 1st grade & continues through 2nd grade.
Preparation for Confirmation is a 2-year preparation process. Young people must have participated for two full, consecutive years in a Catholic school or parish religious education program prior to being confirmed in February. Preparation begins in 6th grade and continues through 8th grade.
