Summer Passport Cards

 

We ended YFF on April 13 with a Jubilee Year Celebration. Every child received a passport card to use over the summer with activities to keep the joy of the Jubilee going throughout the summer.

 

Here are activity ideas for the “Free Spot” on the passport cards for June:​​

• Send Father Lavelle a card for his 25th Anniversary of Ordination

• Visit Lanterman’s Mill 

• Take a walk around Fellows Riverside Garden (Mill Creek Park)

 

Extra passport cards are available in the parish office if you misplace your card. Remember to bring your marked card to the opening YFF class on September 7

for a special surprise treat.

Registration

 

Registration is under way for the 2025-2026 Faith Formation year. Returning families should have their registration packet. If you are new to the parish or have a child entering Kindergarten or First Grade call Marcy at the parish office for information about YFF and to request a registration packet.

 

First Grade is required in order to prepare for First Reconciliation and First Eucharist in second grade. It is expected that grades three through seven are completed before entering eighth grade and Confirmation preparations. 

 

Kindergarten is not required but highly encouraged. We limit the Kindergarten class to 10 children. If you are considering registering your child for Kindergarten YFF, be sure to get your registration packet in early to ensure a spot for your child.

Catechists

​

Thank you to our catechists who have worked so hard to make Year 2 of YFF a success. These wonderful parishioners dedicate their time to sharing our faith with the children of our parish. As always, life sometimes brings changes to our Catechetical Team.  We are looking to add a few more people to grades 3-4 and 7-8.  Please take a moment to pray about joining the Catechetical Team and talk to our catechists about what being a catechist entails.  You may be the person God is calling to join YFF. If you are interested in joining the YFF Catechist Team, please call Marcy at the parish office at 330-533-6839.
