  • Family Contract for Students in First & Second Year of Faith Formation Sacrament Preparation


    I understand parents are the most important teachers of the faith to their children. Our family is registered with and attends weekly Mass at St. Michael’s Catholic Parish. Mass attendance will be tracked using a QR code in church. 

    Parents will meet with the Religious Education Director in August or September to create a faith formation plan for the upcoming year.

    Parents pray with their child daily, ensuring that the child learns and is able to recite the Sacrament Prayers by the spring of the first year of faith formation. Any SLD will be discussed with the Religious Education Director.

    Sacrament Prayers

    The Sign of the Cross
    Glory Be
    Our Father
    Hail Mary
    Act of Contrition

    Parents ensure that their child, in the second year of faith formation, understands and is able to recite his/her Act of Contrition in November. 

    Students will arrive on time to class and have no more than 3 absences during the school year. If there are more than 3 absences in the first or second year of sacrament preparation the formation year will be repeated.

    We will have two family sessions this year in which at least one adult is required to be present. Please see the calendar on our website for those dates. 

    At least 1 family member volunteers each year within the Religious Ed program. Family includes parents, grandparents, aunts, uncles, older siblings.
