The first catechists in any child’s life are the family members with whom he or she lives. What happens at home – both positive and negative – provides lessons for life. In the family, faith is shared as part of the unfolding of daily life. The home or “domestic church” provides a real place in which a child learns to live his or her faith as well as understanding it.
Our goal is to create a program of lifelong faith formation that is centered in and flows out of the events of Church life. It embraces all ages and generation, promotes faith growth at home and promotes participation in Church life.
Religious Education Program-
The Religious Education program is dedicated to teaching our faith to all parishioners---youth and adults. The purpose of our classes is to present the life and teachings of Jesus Christ to enable them to learn and grow in the love of Our Lord, to be made aware of the blessings of our Catholic Faith, and to put these teachings into daily life practices.
Opportunities for sacramental preparation (First Communion, Confirmation, and Rite of Christian Initiation of Adults RCIA, RCIC for Children) are also offered September through May each year. For more information, contact the DRE in the church office at 512.268.5311 or re@samckyle.org.
Religious Education Volunteers:
The Religious Education program is staffed by volunteer lay teachers or leaders. To volunteer, please contact the church office.
