2021-22 Schedule

The Office of Evangelization @ St. André Bessette Parish

2021-2022 Schedule

The following is a detailed schedule of opportunities for K-5, Junior High and High School youth
to grow in faith and fellowship this year:

Youth Faith Formation

Ongoing

Wednesday
Youth Nights

Every Wednesday, all high school youth are invited up to the JPII Youth Lounge on the second floor of the Parish Center. No registration, no commitments. Just come when you can. Each Wednesday of the month is different: Games, Topics, Movies, and Reflection are constantly rotating through. These nights are fun-filled with music, snacks, beverages and more. A perfect way for high school youth to grow in faith together with their peers! Non-Catholic friends are always welcome.

Schedule

First Wednesdays, 6pm-9:30pm
in the Youth Lounge (New Parish Center, 2nd Floor)

Fall 2021 - Spring 2022

SACRAMENTAL PREP: YEAR 1
FIRST RECONCILIATION

SACRAMENTAL PREP: YEAR 2
CONFIRMATION & EUCHARIST

Confirmation and First Communion Mass

Our family-based K-8 Faith Formation meets once a month with two weekend options to accommodate the busy family schedule. Children must be accompanied by a parent/guardian to attend. Each session begins with a shared meal together, then we break into age-appropriate sessions (including the Little Lambs Nursery for children Kindergarten age and younger).

As a family prepares to fully initiate their children into the Faith, our Year 1 program is there to provide them with constant support, guidance, and formation. Our retreats will give parents interactive preparation for their at-home activities/lessons to foster receptivity to the sacramental graces of Reconciliation. The program is part of a two year Sacramental Preparation which culminates in the Sacraments of Confirmation and First Eucharist at the end of the second year.

As a family prepares to fully initiate their children into the faith of the Church, our Year 2 program is there to provide them with constant support, guidance, and formation. Our retreats will give parents interactive preparation for their at-home activities/lessons to foster receptivity to the sacramental graces of Confirmation and Holy Communion. The program is part of a two year Sacramental Preparation which culminates in the Sacraments of Confirmation and First Eucharist at the end of the second year.

Please pray for our candidates!
Come, Holy Spirit!
