Grades 7-8

Catechesis for 7th and 8th graders is held in small groups either in a teachers’ homes or in one of our conference rooms. These classes begin anytime from September through April. Meeting times depend on the teacher and needs of the students. Grade 7 classes begin before Grade 8.  Fr. B also teaches a portion of both grade 7 and grade 8. A Penance service and a community service activity are also part of this program. 

7th graders will use “Faith Fusion” and 8th graders will use “Life in Christ Jesus”. Students will be challenged to know their Catholic faith and to deepen their relationship with Jesus by examining the gospel accounts, teachings of the Church and learn how these teachings relate to their daily lives. Students must attend all scheduled classes.

Catechists will be expected to attend. Please sit with your group and be available to serve as a facilitator as needed by Fr. B. These meetings will be 7:30pm – 8:45pm in Community Hall.
