Youth
Confraternity of Christian Doctrine (CCD)
& High School Religious Education (HSRE)
Our mission in religious education is to collaborate with parents to form a new generation of Catholics who know and love Jesus Christ and live as his disciples in the community of the Catholic Church. Toward that end, we strive to offer a unified, solid and engaging religious education program. While our children and youth will receive important formation in the parish religious education program, the Church strongly encouraged all parents to walk closely with their children as they grow in knowledge and practice of the catholic faith. Through School & CCD classes, First Communion, Confirmation Preparation classes, and other programs, the Religious Education Program sows the seeds of faith that will bloom eternally in each one of our children.
To enroll your child in CCD, please contact our Religious Education Office at (330) 454-2144.
Youth Ministry
The purpose of Youth Ministry is to encourage the youth of our parish in grades 8-12 to know God’s Word, develop a relationship with Jesus Christ, and become active in our Church Community. If your child is interested in joining our Youth Ministry, please call our Religious Education Office at (330) 454-2144.
Rite of Christian Initiation for Adults (RCIA) for Children
Rite of Christian Initiation for Adults for Children is the process for children to be baptized and enter the Catholic Church who have not been baptized as an infant but are now past the age of reason (about age 8) and know right and wrong and can thus commit personal sins. If you are interested in learning more about this opportunity for your child, please contact our Religious Education Office at (330) 454-2144.
