Dear Parents of Grade 2 Children:
Welcome Back to Children’s Ministry! As parents of 2nd graders, this will be a very important and exciting year for you and your child since it is a sacramental year.
We know that you will have questions, so we are holding a special family gathering for Grade 2 parents and their 2nd grade children (siblings stay at home) on Saturday, October 2nd. It is very important that every child in Grade 2 and at least one parent is represented at this family session since Father John Andrew will go over the sacrament of First Reconciliation with you and your child as well.
Session 1: Last Name beginning with A-K meets from 10:00am-Noon.
Session 2: Last Name beginning with L-Z meets from 1:00-3:00pm
Our second grade religious education workshops take place once a month on a Tuesday. The hours are: Drop off ~ 4:20pm; Pick up ~6:05pm. Our first workshop is September 21. At this time, please bring your child to the Ministry Center in the lower gathering space of the church at 4:20 pm. You will be given your child's group assignment and workbook. We kindly ask you bring a 1 pound bag of rice to donate to our Good Samaritan basket on our first workshop day as part of our service outreach. You may consider taking your child shopping for the item so he/she can be part of the giving process.
I have attached a calendar of all important dates for the entire school year for your reference. A copy of theses documents can also be downloaded from our parish website. For your additional convenience, pulpit announcements are made regularly at our Sunday Masses and are also posted in our parish bulletin.
We look forward to seeing your children soon. If you have any questions, please feel free to call or email me. The Children's Ministry Office is closed for the summer and will re-open September 1. I do however check messages periodically if you would like to call or email before then.
