Family Intergenerational Religious Education (F.I.R.E.):

This program offers a unique opportunity to grow in faith as a community.  FIRE is open to every household in the parish community. A typical FIRE group consists of five to seven households with adult participants taking turns leading sessions.  Typical sessions run from 1-1/2 to 2 hours in length, either within the parish building or in parishioner homes.  The curriculum is grounded in scripture and the Catechism of the Catholic Church.  The curriculum is intergenerational; younger and older participants learn from one another. This program addresses the Faith Formation needs of both adults and children.   Requests for groups based on language and/or ethnicity are happily accommodated.
