CCE or Faith Formation for Elementary and Middle School

The CCE department forms the minds and hearts of elementary school and middle school students so they may be full, active, conscious disciples of Christ and His Church. Our ongoing religious education and Sacramental preparation programs are Christ-centered, rooted in the Holy Bible and Catechism of the Catholic Church, and oriented toward a culture of life. We strive to create a family-friendly environment where formation in the Catholic faith is an opportunity to grow together in a lifelong relationship with Jesus Christ through His Church. Entrusted to the will of God, our parish community works together as one body to ensure each young disciple authentically lives their Catholic faith with perseverance and joy.

CCE at St. Theresa’s is a ongoing weekly program following the ISD calendar.

NOTE* CCE classes are required for First Communion preparation. make sure you register your child in both programs unless they are enrolled in Catholic School or Home School Catholic based.

First Sacraments Preparation

Our First Communion program consists in monthly classes + a half day retreat for the children receiving the sacrament as much as the parents. Children would meet in a classroom setting while the parents are giving the same material in a conference setting. Classes take place one Sunday per month at 1pm with the opportunity for make up classes.

For children who have already completed a year of Faith Formation or CCE, they are eligible to enroll in Reconciliation and First Communion Classes. Children have to be 7 years of old or older and in the 2nd grade. Children need to be taking the CCE classes along with the First Sacraments classes unless they are enrolled in a Catholic School or Catholic Based Home School.
