Religious Education
Welcome to Religious Education at St. Joan of Arc
St. Joan of Arc’s Religious Education strives to develop and cultivate the faith in every area of the life of the child, young adult and adult of the parish. Faith formation is a life-long process it is not accomplished quickly, nor is it complete after a certain number of years. A knowledge of one’s religion and a living out of one’s faith is ongoing. Growth and change are an integral part of the process. Catechesis educates the child or young adult in the living faith of the Church and is designed to help at each stage of human development leading to full identification with Jesus Christ. Teaching the Gospel values encourages harmonious development of the spiritual, intellectual, moral, physical and social skills of each child, young adult and adult.
Please first register your family as St. Joan of Arc Church parishioners
