You can help our children in English Faith Formation by passing on your faith and experiences as a catechist. As you nurture their faith, you will learn and grow as well. 

Beginning in September 2019-2020 Classes are on Tuesdays from 6:30-7:30 PM at SJV School.

Not sure what being a catechist is all about? Want to help but don't want to teach? There are other roles to fill on the team as well! All are welcome to share their gifts and talents.
