Faith Formation programs at SS Peter and Paul:
Sunday School
We have Sunday School for our children age 5 through kindergarten two times per month during 10:00 Mass. Schedule is posted on our church website under the Faith Formation tab, "Yearly Calendar", "Sunday School Calendar".
Primary Faith Formation
Our 1st through 8th graders come to class on Wednesday nights during the school year from 6:30 - 7:30pm. We use the Sadlier "We Believe" Catholic Identity curriculum for 1st through 6th grade and we utilize Sadlier's "We Live Our Faith" for 7th and 8th grades. Every two years, our 7th and 8th grades have teaching from "Theology of the Body" curriculum.
Confirmation
Our Confirmation program is open to young men and women starting their ninth grade of high school. We typically meet once per week during the regular Faith Formation school year. Starting in fall 2018, our classes will meet following 10:00 Sunday Mass. Our Confirmation Mass is held in the spring in Rochester with Pax Christi.
Our Confirmation candidates must select a Saint, prayerfully choose a sponsor to help them grow in their Faith throughout their confirmation process, participate in a retreat, complete a report about their saint and also make a poster about themselves to post in our church. Specific details about the requirements for Confirmation will be posted on line and also given to the candidates at the beginning of the school year.
Additional events throughout the year
During our Faith Formation year, we hold monthly Youth Masses, where our Confirmation candidates and second graders participate in the ministries. These are either the second or third Sunday of each month of our Faith Formation year.
We also have a Christmas program that we invite all parishioners and families to attend. You can find the date on our "Grade 1-8 Calendar".
