Religious Education (Kindergarten to Grade 5)
Religious Education class is one of the primary ways children, kindergarten to fifth grade, are introduced to their Catholic faith. They are introduced to the teachings of the Catholic church and become familiar with Catholic prayers and religious practices. The program is intended for children attending public or private non-Catholic schools. Catholic school children are also invited to attend, but as they receive Catholic instruction in school, their attendance is not mandatory. However, in preparation for receiving the restored Order of the Sacraments, they are required to formally register with the parish's Religious Education Program. Religious Education Classes are held on Sundays from 9:45 am to 10:45 (after the 8:30 am Mass) and they typically run from August to May.

Youth Ministry
(Grades 6-12)
Youth in grades 6-8 and in high school (9-12) are invited to build friendships, share their faith, and discover their gifts and talents through fun activities. Youth Ministry aims to empower the youth in our community to live as disciples of Jesus Christ through the study of scripture and activities that help strengthen their Catholic faith. This program offers teens an opportunity to gather with their peers to share their faith and have fun in a supportive atmosphere. Teens are encouraged to participate in planned activities that include movie nights, Bible study nights, service projects, retreats, and Windward Vicariate and Diocesan Youth events.

RCIA
If you are not Catholic but have an interest in becoming Catholic; baptized Catholic, but not brought up in the Catholic faith; or, if you are just interested in learning more about your Catholic faith, then please consider the RCIA program. Interested persons are instructed in Catholic doctrine and practices to enable them to discern better the call of God to conversion of life. This includes preparation for the sacraments of initiation-Baptism, Confirmation, and Eucharist.
