WelcomePRE/CCD Sunday Morning Religious Education (for children and teens not in Catholic school)
The primary responsibility for the education of children, both religious and secular education, lies with the parents. The Catechism of the Catholic Church tells us:
”Parents should initiate their children at an early age into the mysteries of the faith of which they are the first heralds for their children. They should associate them from their tenderest years with the life of the Church. A wholesome family life can foster interior dispositions that are a genuine preparation for a living faith and remain a support for it throughout one’s life” (2225)
“Education in the faith by the parents should begin in the child’s earliest years. This already happens when family members help one another to grow in faith by the witness of a Christian life in keeping with the Gospel. Family catechesis (faith-teaching) precedes, accompanies, and enriches other forms of instruction in the faith. “ (2226)
“As far as possible parents should choose schools (for their children) which help them fulfill their duties as Christian educators.” (2229)
The Church endeavors to assist parents in fulfilling their responsibilities by running schools in which the Catholic Faith is taught not only as one subject among many, but also as a part of, or as a background for, all other subjects. Although All Saints Parish no longer operates its own elementary school, we are fortunate to have a fine school on the parish property which is administered by the Sisters of St. Joseph the Worker: St. Joseph Academy. The parish is part of the St. Henry High School District and is required by the Diocese of Covington to contribute 5% of its income to the support of St. Henry High School. Teenagers from All Saints also attend the other Catholic high schools in the diocese, for instance, Covington Latin, Covington Catholic, Notre Dame, and Villa Madonna. (See Catholic Schools on the Diocese’s Web Page).
In some circumstances parents, either by choice or out of necessity, do not enroll their children in a Catholic school. To aid them in passing on the Catholic Faith to their children, the parish operates a Sunday Morning Religion Program. The program includes children from the pre-school level to teenagers who are in their last year of high school.
Sessions are held in St. Joseph’s Academy on Sunday mornings. Grades 1-12 meet at 9:15 a.m. and the pre-school children (ages 4-5) meet during the 11:00 a.m. Mass.
Andrew Cole coordinates this program. He is assisted by several dedicated parishioners.
Parents who are home schooling their children should check with Andrew. He will be able to recommend resources which will help them.
