Our Parish Religious Education Program
The main focus of our Parish Religious Education Program (PREP) is to assist families in forming children who know and love Jesus plus desire to do good while serving God’s people. Participating in weekly class, activities at church and celebrating the liturgical seasons throughout the year, our students are able learn about Jesus, his great love, and how to live as a Christian.
​
Our PREP program is for children in first grade through eighth grade. Children make the sacraments of Reconciliation and Holy Eucharist in second grade and Confirmation in eighth grade. Classes are held Monday and Tuesday evenings from 6:15 to 7:30 p.m. at Cold Spring Elementary School from September through May.
