Be My Disciple Program


Our parish offers the Be My Disciple Program to children aged 7 – 11 years old.

 

The Be My Disciple Program is 4-year English program that aims to prepare children for the Sacraments of:

  • Penance and Reconciliation
  • First Communion
  • Confirmation

Level 1 (Year 1) is intended for children preparing for Pre-Communion, Level 2 (Year 2) is geared towards children preparing for First Communion, Level 3 (Year 3) is for Pre-Confirmation children, and Level 4 (Year 4) is for children preparing to receive the Sacrament of Confirmation.

 

Eligibility Criteria:

  • Children must be enrolled in Grade 2 to be eligible for Level 1 (Pre-Communion).
  • Children must have proficiency in spoken and written English.

 

Classes are available on Saturdays from 3:30 PM to 5:00 PM and Sundays from 10:00 AM to 11:30 AM.

 

Since Mass plays a crucial role in reinforcing what children learn in their catechism classes, all catechism students are expected to attend Mass weekly, following their catechism class, with options available on Saturdays at 5:00 PM or Sundays at 11:30 AM. Additionally, all catechism children along with their family members are encouraged to join our parish in praying the Rosary via ZOOM.

 

The Be My Disciple Program runs from October to April.
