Corpus Christi’s Faith Formation Program provides Religious Instruction to children in grades K and up. Through our Religious Education program, we seek to increase children’s awareness of the presence of God in their daily lives through Scripture, prayer and an appropriate curriculum that teaches Catholic doctrine necessary for children to become good, practicing Catholics. Our faith formation classes also prepare children for the Sacraments of the Eucharist, Reconciliation, and Confirmation.
