In light of the ongoing pandemic restrictions, the vast majority of our Faith Formation programming will be home-based throughout the 2020-2021 Catechetical Year. We hope to provide regular optional in-person social and service events as well.
Middle School EDGE will involve twice monthly virtual EDGE sessions delivered via email. These short video sessions will involve games, a talk, and some points to discuss with a family member or friend. They will also pre-recorded rather than live so you can watch them whenever it best fits your schedule. In weeks when there is no virtual EDGE, we encourage you to read the Sunday Gospels and talk with someone about what you find interesting or confusing.
At every level of formation, we will provide additional optional resources, occasional physical resources for your family to pick up, and optional in-person events so your kids will know their parish is also their spiritual family. We also want to give your family the freedom and flexibility to have one family faith conversation each week while still being able to gives your kids what they need for their developmental stage. We hope to have volunteers check in with your family by phone periodically throughout the year as well.
As always, please let us know if you need help personalizing this experience for your unique family. Our goal has always been not to bend your family to fit our program but rather to tweak our program to fit your family.
