NEEDS FOR R.E.P. PROGRAM IN 2020-2021

The R.E.P. program is in need of Catechists for the following grades beginning September 2020:

• 1 First grade catechist, meets every Tuesday from 4:00-5:15 p.m.
• 1 Catechist for Grade 3, meets every Tuesday from 4:00-5:15p.m.
• 1 Catechist for Grade 6 meets every other Tuesday from 7:00-8:30 p.m.
• 1 Catechist for Grade 7, meets every other Tuesday from 7:00-8:30 p.m.

Please consider this ministry and join other dedicated Catechists who impart their faith and knowledge to the children of our parish. Both Sister Joan and Louise provide support and direction throughout the year. The texts are very easy to use and lend additional supplements for instruction. Please call the R.E.P. office, 847-398-5011, and we can give you more information.

REGISTRATION

For Religious Education Classes For 2020-2021

Parents who have not registered their child/children for Religious Education classes are asked to do so as soon as possible. We are in the process of finalizing the classes, and materials for next year.

POLICIES FOR SACRAMENT YEARS

• Students entering Grade 2 must have had formal religious instruction the previous year, otherwise they will be placed in Grade 1. Grade 2 is a sacrament year, as students will receive the Sacraments of Reconciliation and Eucharist for the first time.
• Students entering Grade 7 must have had formal religious instruction in Grade 6 before being accepted into the Grades 7-8 Confirmation Preparation Program.
