  All are welcome to receive faith formation at Christ the Redeemer. The Religious Education Department serves our children grades Prek3- 7th. We offer traditional classroom sessions as well as a Home-based approach for families to ensure all are being served.
  
  Please note that 7th graders will have the option of traditional R.E. classes through the R.E. Department or through the Youth Ministry with the Rise program. For Information for 7th grade Rise or 8th - 12th Grades, visit the Youth Ministry website.
  
  Religious Education Class Times:
  
  Sundays: 1:30 p.m., 3:30 p.m.
  Mondays: 6 p.m.
  Tuesdays: 6 p.m.
  
  Please note: If your child is registered for Sacrament Preparation, please be advised that the 1:30 p.m. time frame on Sundays will conflict with these sessions. As such we do not offer 2nd-grade religious education during the 1:30 session.

- Religious Education at Christ the Redeemer
  
  For the 2019-20 year, the Church focuses on the theme "Stay With Us." Annually, Catechetical Sunday is in September and catechists will be called forth to be commissioned for their ministry. Catechetical Sunday is a wonderful opportunity to reflect on the role that each person plays, by virtue of Baptism, in handing on the faith and being a witness to the Gospel. Catechetical Sunday is an opportunity for all to rededicate themselves to this mission as a community of faith.
  
  ----------------------
  
  The mission of Christ the Redeemer’s Religious Education program is to bring the “Good News” of God’s love to all children and their families and to call them to commit their lives to Christ.
  
  Religious Education classes are available for children in Preschool through 7th grade. Participants from 8th grade through high school are under the instruction of the Youth Ministry.
  
  We encourage parents to be parishioners of Christ the Redeemer when registering your child for Religious Education classes. Census forms can be obtained from the Parish Office during regular business hours, in the narthex of the church or register online.

  Catechetical Ministers are needed to form our children in the faith. Catechists teach the faith to the children, Aides help the catechists in the classroom, and Hall Monitors are also needed to help in a variety of ways. Registration for Catechetical Ministers and their children is open.
- Safe Environment
  
  All adults volunteering to work with children or youth must go through Safe Environment online training as mandated by the Archdiocese of Galveston-Houston. For more information, visit our page on Safe Environment.
