All are welcome to participate in faith formation at Christ the Redeemer. The Religious Education Department and Catechetical Ministry Team at Christ the Redeemer directly serves families of children Pre-K 3 through 6th grade.
The mission of Christ the Redeemer’s Religious Education program is to bring the good news of Jesus Christ to the families by forming the faith of the children through the process of religious education. At the same time, we accompany, evangelize, and catechize the parents who are primarily responsible for raising their children in the faith.
Through the formation process the families will continue to seek, know, and love God and because of that love will live each day serving God and neighbor. Through lives committed to prayer, sacraments, formation, and service, they learn what it means to be a disciple of Jesus Christ, and invite others to do the same.
For the 2022-23 Catechetical Year, we will offer traditional classroom sessions as well as a home-based option for families to ensure all children in grades PreK3-6th are being served.
We are always in need of many catechetical ministers to give a weekly commitment to help in the classroom. We will offer all of the training needed and assist all our ministers throughout the year. If you are interested in joining the ministry, please email Adilene Huff at adilene.huff@ctrcc.com and Linda Watso at linda.watso@ctrcc.com.
The Religious Education Department communicates to our families via Flocknote, the parish email and text messaging system. Sign up to learn more about how to get involved in our program.
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. This year, the Church will celebrate Catechetical Sunday on September 19, 2021, and the theme is: “Say the Word and My Soul Shall be Healed." Those who the parish community has designated to serve as catechists will be called forth to be commissioned for their ministry.
These online resources are offered free of charge to all interested individuals and to serve the needs of diocesan leaders. Many of the resources are also of interest to parish catechetical leaders and catechists, youth and young adults’ ministers, Catholic school principals and teachers, as well as other individuals who provide faith formation to diverse age groups and settings.
