St. Philip Neri Religious Education is using the Family Formation Program this year.
Family Formation has been put in place to educate the parents so they in turn can educate their children. "The right and duty of parents to give education is essential, original and primary, and it is irreplaceable and incapable of being entirely delegated to others.
Family Formation was developed by the Catholic Church of St. Paul in Ham Lake, Minnesota as a fresh approach to the difficulties families were facing with traditional
religious education programs. They realized early on that, without parent’s involvement in their children's catechesis, it wasn't successful.
We meet the first Sunday of each month at St. Philip Neri Catholic School unless otherwise stated on the religious education schedule. The materials for the rest of the month are supplied to the parents at that time along with the opportunity to have any and all questions about the aforementioned materials explained. In addition; St. Philip Neri offers sacramental preparation courses for your child as well including First Reconciliation, First Communion, and Confirmation.
We encourage and invite all families to attend the weekend Mass. Our children live what they learn and learn what they live.
All questions and concerns should be directed to
