Faith Formation/Parish Religious Education 

Thanks for attending Family Faith Formation on April 6! Our final faith formation potluck (for all faith formation families) will take place on May 4 at 5:30pm. 2nd grade, 5th grade, and 6th grade classes will continue as usual until then. If you missed Family Faith Formation on April 6, below are the handouts for the month of April. Be sure to continue utilizing your parent guides, children's activity books, and family storybooks. Please bring your family storybooks or other projects on May 4 to showcase as a portfolio of your family's work throughout the year.

First Reconciliation will take place on Saturday, April 23, starting with a 9:00am Mass, directly followed by First Communion practice and then First Reconciliation.
First Communion will take place on Divine Mercy Sunday, April 24 at the 10:00am Mass.

The Confirmaton Mass will take place on Friday, April 29 at 7:00pm. 

Faith Formation is open to students age 3 through Confirmation (grades 5-6) at Christ the King Parish.

Catechesis of the Good Shepherd is offered for children age 3, 4, and 5. See Catechesis of the Good Shepherd for details and for registration forms. 

Family Faith Formation is for families with children age 5 - grade 4. Families meet one Wednesday of the month, gathering as a Parish community (see schedule below). The parents meet with Father Schneider, while the children meet with a catechist according to age group. Evenings begin with a light social at 5:30pm, followed by opening prayer at 5:45pm. The evening concludes at 7:00pm. Families are then asked to pray and reflect on the month's teaching at home. It is an unique opportunity to create a domestic church, where the family becomes the primary formator of their children in the faith.

First Communion (1st and 2nd graders)
First communion consists of a two-year preparation program. Both 1st and 2nd grade families must sign up for Family Faith Formation. First and second graders and their families participate in Family Faith Formation once a month. Second grade students have additional weekly meetings with a catechist every Wednesday from 5:30-6:30pm. A detailed schedule for the 2nd graders is provided below.

Confirmation (5th and 6th graders)
Confirmation consists of a two-year preparation program for 5th and 6th grade. Confirmation classes meet weekly with catechists on Wednesdays from 6:45pm-8:00pm in the Parish Life Center. Detailed schedules for 5th and 6th grade are provided below.
