Welcome to St. John's Parish Religious Education Program!
We look forward to sharing our faith with your children.

Through example, service, study and prayer, St. John's PREP aims to guide our young parishioners in grades 1-7 and their families to develop a lifelong relationship with Jesus. We are committed to:
 

• Nurturing love of God and service to others;

 

• Teaching the values and catechism of the Catholic Church; and

 

• Preparing children for the sacraments of Reconciliation, First Holy Communion, and Confirmation.

All SJC children, regardless of school, traditionally celebrate First Reconciliation and First Holy Communion in second grade and Confirmation in seventh grade. Please note that sacramental preparation begins in first grade and that PREP students must be enrolled every year, beginning in first grade, to complete their sacraments on schedule.

Adaptive PREP students may receive their sacraments at any age, in accordance with their needs.

We understand that some families have special circumstances that affect their child's religious education and sacramental preparation. Please reach out to us as soon as possible to discuss any special needs for the upcoming year.

Our Programs

St. John's PREP offers two options:

• Instruction and sacramental preparation for grades 1-7; and

 

• An Adaptive program for youth of all ages with special needs.

For 2021-22, we anticipate a blended program that combines at-home instruction with on-campus classes on two Sunday mornings each month. Please note that all plans are tentative at this point.
