As always, the health and safety of our families is our highest priority. We carefully considered the state and archdiocesan requirements, as well as the logistics of shared spaces within our church community. Given the current circumstances, and after much discussion and prayer, the decision was made to shift religious education programs for this year to a home-based model. We believe that by doing so we were able to safely and effectively continue our parish religious education programs. As conditions improve and requirements change, we will evaluate the possibility of supplementing our online religious education with small group in-person programming.
Until such time as that becomes possible, all families have two options to choose from for at-home catechesis:- Online Religious Education Option 1: This program is Google-classroom-based and incorporates online video lessons, a monthly family activity, a short quiz to check for understanding, and Zoom meetings to be scheduled during the year.
- Textbook-based Religious Education Option 2: If videos are not the best option for your child, and you are comfortable assuming the role of catechist without the assistance of videos, you can choose to teach directly from the textbook and work with your child at your own pace. A monthly family activity, a brief quiz, and Zoom meetings to be scheduled during the year are also components of this program.
