Each registered family will receive weekly emails with the lesson of the week. Parents choose which day or days their children will complete the lesson and answer the assessment question(s). You have complete flexibility of which activities and how your children will do their learning (online, workbook, a combination of both). Families with children in multiple grades will appreciate this flexibility as they can choose activities from multiple grades to share with all family members.
In addition to their weekly assignments at home, all families meet once per month for a session which includes:Group prayer
Parent only discussion to share and grow community
Family Learning and activity that challenges to grow and live our Catholic faith
Sessions are 1.5 hours and are offered five times throughout the month to give you flexibility for attendance.

The biggest thing we hear from parents is that they don't feel confident in handing on the faith to their children.
We can assure you, there is nothing more to sharing your faith with your family than your love for them and your
love for God. During your monthly sessions, you will see our Faith Formation Team model just how easy it is as well as give you an opportunity to talk with other parents, getting ideas and tips from your community to build faith and
family identity.

Because you are learning your faith together, our program gives you a chance to make your family a vibrant center of faith. Relationships with God and each other grow and deepen as you encourage each other to live out the faith in your daily lives. Families also develop a strong sense of community and Catholic identity as families get to know each other by learning, praying, and growing together.
