Afterschool Discipleship Formation

Afterschool Discipleship Formation

(Formerly Religious Education) for 2025-2026


Registration is now open and ends August 31st


I am excited to invite our parish children to participate in this year’s Afterschool Discipleship Formation. It is a way for our children to learn about their faith, come together with their peers, build a life of discipleship, as well as grow closer to God through the sacraments.

-Miranda Garcia, Director of Discipleship Formation
