  • Curriculum

    2026-27
  • 1. St. Jude’s primary curriculum is a combination of self-made, YDisciple, Theology of the Body, and other relivant resources. St. Jude focuses on the Holy Spirit, liturgical year, sacraments of initaion, and Catholic teachings. Most of our classes are done in a large group format, with the last 10-20 minutes in small groups. 

    2. If you are able to serve as a small group leader please email Lizzy! ecairns@stjudeofthelake.org

    3. St. John Paul II’s Theology of the Body offers a very positive message of the gift of sexuality as a good and essential part of love and life. It is our hope that this curriculum will provide your child with the knowledge and understanding they need concerning the meaning and purpose of their identity, their sexuality, and of their very existence. I expect your Confirmand to approach these lessons with respect and maturity. If for whatever reason you would not like your child to learn about TOB please fill out the opt-out form by clicking this link: https://form.jotform.com/230336708292052

    If you fill out this form we will work out a study for your child to do with a similar lesson.
