Religious Education Registration Now Open!

Religious Education Home Resources
​Our Religious Education classes are designed to teach and inspire.  Our program offers opportunities for our children to grow in their knowledge of love of God and our Catholic Faith.  Religious Education classes take place on Sunday mornings from 9 until 10:15 a.m. from September through May.  

NEW PLANS AND PROCEDURES FOR THIS YEAR

Our goal has always been to assist you, the parents, in bringing your children closer to God and growing them in their Catholic faith.  With these strange times come new opportunities and new ways of doing things.  We are excited to implement  Pflaum Gospel Weeklies which can be used by catechists in the classroom as well as parents in the home.  We have strived to adapt this year’s program to create an environment that is safe and healthy for both our volunteers and our children.  

What will Religious Education at St. Anne Church look like this year?
  • There will be no Pre-K classes 
  • Students not in Sacramental Prep will attend in-person classes at the school once per month
  • Sacramental Prep classes will meet in-person twice each month
  • Parents will homeschool lessons the other weeks of the month-materials and resources will be provided
  • On-line assessments will serve as proof of attendance when classes are not in-person
There is much more information to come including safety procedures for
in-person classes and details about Pflaum Gospel Weeklies.  We hope that you will be as excited as we are to use this new program!  Our catechists are disappointed to not be spending as much time with your children but understand that the opportunity to learn together as a family will help all family members grow as disciples. 

Here are a few Religious Education policy reminders:
  • Children who do not attend Catholic school are expected to be enrolled in Religious Education
  • Families must first be registered in the parish to enroll their children in Religious Education
  • Students planning to receive a sacrament must complete two consecutive years of religious education
  • All families must re-register each year

Sacramental Policy 
This website has tons of resources but one of my favorites is the mass worksheet that you can print out for each Sunday. There is a worksheet for ages 7-10 and another for ages 11-14. Even if you are watching the live stream of the Mass, kids should be able to answer most of the questions. I love that
they have to really listen to the readings to answer most of the questions. There are also coloring pages for younger children.
This is one of my favorite websites! There are tons of fun activities and resources. They have even added specific resources that will help you during this time including some boredom busters! The homeschool tips are very helpful as well.
