About the Family Program (Christian Formation Classes)
The Family Program is a vibrant alternative to the traditional
program. Its goal is to offer formation for the entire family.
Sessions include a family dinner, age-specific formation (including
adult formation), family activities and communal prayer. Childcare
is provided for younger children.
Here are the program specifics:
- Open to families with children 4K through 10.
- Takes place two Monday evenings per month in October-March (See schedule)
- Children and youth follow the same curriculum as those in the traditional program within their own grade level.
- Cost is same as in the traditional program
The time frame is as follows:
| 5:30-6:00 p.m. |
Supper in the SFB-North Church Hall |
| 6:00-7:00 p.m. |
Peer sessions. Children go into classrooms with their peers and adults have their own catechetical session in the church hall. |
| 7:00-7:30 p.m. |
Family session |
Childcare is available from 6:00-7:30 p.m. for children ages 3 and under.
Some comments from participants include:
- “I was glad to do this as a family so our kids know that religious formation is a lifelong ongoing process that can be fun.”
- “It has been much less stressful on the family to have us all here at the same time rather than running on different days.”
- “The meals were really great.”
