Our parish identifies parents as being primary role models for sacramental preparation. CCD classes, offered throughout the school year, follow a scope and sequence that stems from the "Living Waters" authorship team. Dedicated teachers plan lessons, which enrich our parish children in their experience of growing up Catholic.

Classes are offered quarterly to parents who are planning an infant baptism. The first Communion and Reconciliation programs bring parents and their children together in order to prepare for the sacraments. Classes include diocesan policy, church practices, open discussions, liturgical plans, and indoctrination from our pastor.

Confirmation is a two-year process initiated as early as the sophomore year in high school. Students participate in a program designed to better understand their catholic commitment. The class sold pasta dinner tickets to help defray the cost for their retreat.

Formation Programs for Adults

A variety of discussion topics are offered throughout the year. Our pastor and coordinator of religious education facilitate sessions. Contact the Mercy Center office, or check postings in the weekly bulletin.
