  • Level One (Ages 3years old-1^st grade)
    Level I encourages children to develop their innate potential for a faith-filled relationship with God. They encounter Jesus, the Good Shepherd who loves them, cares for them, and knows them by name. Catechesis includes Scripture, Mass gestures, prayers, artwork, and music. Level One is for children three years old through kindergarten.
    
    Level Two (Grades 2^nd & 3^rd)
    The goals for children in Level Two is to help deepen the child’s relationship with Christ and the Catholic faith. Through the moral parables and teachings of Jesus, along with a more intense exploration of the Mass the child grows in a desire to remain close to Christ. It is during this level that the children prepare for the Sacraments of Reconciliation and First Eucharist.
