Parish Education

Religious education holds a vital role in the spiritual formation of our children and adults. It provides them with an invaluable opportunity to grow in their faith, deepen their understanding of Catholic teachings, and develop a personal relationship with God.


PARISH SCHOOL OF RELIGION (PSR)
While Catholic schools offer a comprehensive religious curriculum, we recognize that not all families are able to enroll their children in these institutions. Through our Parish School of Religion, children are exposed to the fundamental tenets of our faith, such as the life and teachings of Jesus, the sacraments, the importance of prayer, and the significance of Christian virtues. They learn about the Scriptures and the wisdom contained within, allowing them to comprehend and apply these teachings in their daily lives.

Registration for the PSR school year begins in July. To register, use the button below. Deadline to Register for PSR is Tuesday, August 25, 2026.
