Religious Education classes for students in grades K-5 will be held every other week beginning in September.  Families have a choice of Wednesdays from 4:30-5:30 or Sundays from 11:00-noon.

Each week in class, teachers will present a lesson using the Spirit of Truth textbook as the primary resource.  Children are asked to review what they have learned at home with their families. On the off week, families will complete an activity together in an effort to grow in faith as a family.

Additional components of our Religious Education program at St. John Neumann are Father Rob's famous Parent Handbooks and the equally famous lanyard with prayer card.  Using the handbooks, parents walk their children through the Catechism bit by bit, with the goal being exposing children to the Catechism.  Additionally, families study the Life of Christ by reading Scripture together.  Prayer cards encourage children to memorize prayers, Ten Commandments, Books of the Bible, etc.  Students proudly wear their lanyards as a sign of their success and progress.

Volunteers are needed to teach classes, assist, supervise hallways, etc.  Please contact Claire Bryson to volunteer or for more information about our program.  Click here to register.
