Parent and Youth Sessions
Each grade level provides two opportunities for parents and youth to grow in their faith together, called Parent and Youth Sessions (PAY) with each child in Faith Formation. PAY sessions are on Wednesdays during regular class time or during a longer window of time (to allow for parents/guardians’ work schedules). Watch your e-mail for further information about each grade's PAY sessions.
All children must have an adult present with them. There are no catechists teaching for these sessions therefore there is no one available to take your child through these stations. Parents who simply drop off a child will be called to come back and pick him/her up.
Below is information about each grade's Parent and Youth Sessions.
