Children & Youth Religious Education



Generations of Faith
Pax Christi's Approach to
Lifelong Faith Formation has been changed to

G.I.F.T. - Growing in Faith Together!

Program Changes for 2013-2014

Growing in Faith Together - "Gift"

        A new name for our lifelong intergenerational faith formation program!

 Shorten the Length of the Session

              From 3 hours to 2 hours (by eliminating the meal)

 Instead of a Pre-K class, 4-year-olds will meet in the Nursery

Babysitters will show DVDs, read stories, and have coloring pages and activities on Jesus for them, and they'll also get to play and have fun together

For High School, instead of GIFT this coming year, they will participate in "Person of Christ", the catechetical session in Youth Group!

We want to promote our new Youth Ministry program and encourage our high schoolers to really get involved with the Youth Group...they'll meet weekly, and one meeting each month will include a catechetical session ("Person of Christ") which integrates the same theme that we'll cover in GIFT.

 Session Format

FAITH IN ACTION (15 minutes)

Families will review among themselves and share with other families how they’ve incorporated the previous month's lesson in their daily lives through ongoing dialogue, reflection, and review of activities that were provided at the end of the previous month's session.

 IN-DEPTH LEARNING SESSION (100 minutes)

- Age groups will break out each learn at their level (Kindergarten,  1st & 2nd grades, 3rd & 4th grades, 5th & 6th grades, 7th & 8th grades, Adults)

- At the end of this session, children and adults will be given materials and activities for ongoing learning and reflection to bring together what they've learned as a family and make it part of their daily lives.

- Textbooks will be used for Kindergarten through 8th grades

 RE-GATHER AND CLOSING PRAYER (5 minutes)

 Session Times

    1st and 2nd Sunday: 1:00 - 3:00 pm

Parents with children age 7 and older who are interested in celebrating Baptism…

The Rite of Christian Initiation for Adults is adapted for children. To help children come to know our faith community a bit, families need to participate in Growing in Faith Together (GIFT) one year prior to participation in the Rite of Christian Initiation for Adults Adapted for Children. Through participation in this process, in keeping with Canon Law, children age 7 and older will celebrate Full Initiation: Baptism, Confirmation and 1st Communion, at the Easter Vigil.
