The Wonder of Me
Thursdays, 9:30 - 10:30 AM, beginning July 13th
 

God created us to live in harmony with the world around us exploring and growing along the way until we discover all He has created us to be. This program will work with children where they are and inspire quiet growth by thinking about “me and my place in the world.”

•    What can I do, what is still hard for me…how can I grow?

•    Can I try new foods? Can I follow directions? Can I use my hands to create new things?
•    Can I think about the way God made the world and try to understand it?

•    Can I get to know others and learn to appreciate what they like and what they can do?

•    Can I listen and share even when it’s hard?

Join us as we read, listen, sing, think, & work with our hands so we can begin to discover all we can be. 
This program is for children 3 ½ - 5 years.
FORMAT: In-person programming outdoors with limited group size. Masks are required until seated.

Journey to the Word 
(This program will return in the Fall 2021)

We all want our children to grow into literate, thinking adults, but reading the Bible doesn’t happen in a day.  It takes time and practice to develop the literacy skills necessary to become a proficient reader. This program will focus on helping children build a strong foundation of phonological awareness skills to support their growing phonemic awareness and early literacy skills using fun and engaging activities.
Children will need an easy-to-open binder for filing their work. This is an important step in the process of learning alphabet skills.
This program is best suited for children beginning kindergarten in Fall 2021.
 

The Catechesis of the Good Shepherd program is a beautiful, hands-on way of leading young children to learn about our faith, the Bible, the Mass and our loving God. This fall, our parish will open a Level 1 Atrium for children ages 3 - 6 years.  This weekly 1 1/2 hour program will give your child the gift of faith as well as a loving relationship with our heavenly Father.
