CHILDREN WITH SPECIAL NEEDS 

This program is for children and teens over the age of 7, who are not baptized or baptized in another faith and wish to join the Catholic church. The program is a minumum of two years preparation or it  could be longer, depending on  family committmnet or child's/teens knowledge.  

During the first year your child/teen will attend their grade level Faith Formation classes along with a twice a month classes on Church Traditions, prayers, and Sacred Scripture.

The second year they will attend FF classes and meet 2 times a month.  These classes will help them understand the Catholic faith on a deeper level and prepare them to receive the Sacraments of Baptism, First Holy Eucharist and Confirmation.  The students are evaluated throughout the year and if ready, the student will receive their Sacraments at the Easter Vigil. There is no time set on receiving of Sacraments, it is when the child/teen is ready.
