Family Faith Formation
Welcome to
Our Lady of the Assumption Church Family Faith Formation
Grades 1-5 for First Holy Communion and Reconciliation
Family Faith Formation is a family-centered faith formation.
Our Lady of the Assumption Parish supports parents in the promise made at their children's baptism: to raise them in the Catholic faith.
Through Family Faith Formation, the whole family grows together in faith.
First Holy Communion is a momentous occasion in the life of a Catholic child, as it brings them closer to Christ and allows them to experience the true presence of Jesus in the Eucharist.
We wish to make our Family Faith Formation program the best possible experience for you and your children. In this two-year program, parents attend every gathering with their child(ren). We will meet in person every other week with at-home activities for the weeks that we do not meet; starting in September, after Labor Day, and ending in May.
If your child is not yet baptized, we will assist them in receiving this Sacrament. You do not need to wait to begin Family Faith Formation.
For children enrolled in the program who demonstrate readiness:
- In the first year, children will receive the Sacrament of Reconciliation.
- In the second year, children will receive their First Holy Communion.
Questions may be directed to Teresa Nelson, Director of Family Faith Formation
