PARENT PLEDGE

In accordance with the Bishop of the Diocese of Orange, I have chosen to enroll and participate in my child’s Faith Formation at Santiago de Compostela Church. I understand that the parish provides a place for my family to grow and be nourished in our personal relationship with Jesus through prayer, the study of scripture, generosity, and liturgy. I promise to support my child’s faith formation at church and home by:

• Practicing my faith and being an example to my family.
• Attending and participating in Sunday Mass every week.
• Daily prayer such as morning offering, night prayer, grace before and after meals,
• Attend all the Conferences for Parents planned during the school year.                                    
• PUNCTUALITY: Being on time is an excellent way to show your child that attendance in Religious Education is important.

More than two (2) unexcused absences will be cause for evaluation of the student’s placement in the program. Sports or extracurricular activities do not fall into the category of excused absences.              

COMUNICATIONS

I authorize Santiago de Compostela and the Faith Formation Program to send me by e-mail, text messages, and REMIND messages,  all the information about the catechesis and the different celebrations in the Parish, such as Masses, classes, parents meetings, training sessions for parents and guardians, summer camp, among others.
