As a part of our parish community, would you consider becoming a catechist (teacher) and enriching your faith life? As an added benefit, you would not have to pay the registration fee for any of your children. Also, you will have the full support of the faith formation team. Please contact Monica (Monica@sjbrh.org) for more information on becoming a catechist.

Information regarding what day and time of classes based on grade level are included in the online registration form.

Please read the following important information as it pertains to the upcoming faith formation year and beyond:

Family must be registered in St Josephine Bakhita parish for their children to be enrolled and participate in the faith formation classes. Should you need to complete a parish registration form please use this link.
Remember that the sacramental fees for Reconciliation, First Eucharist, and Confirmation are in addition to the registration fee and are not included in the family cap.
If possible, fill out the online registration with your laptop or another computer rather than a mobile phone.
It is important for your children to participate in all faith formation years, not just sacramental years! Participation, especially in grades 7 and 8 is a requirement for them to enter the Confirmation preparation program in 9th grade!
No children will be turned away for inability to pay. If you require financial assistance during this time, please reach out to us as we are willing to work with you. Contact Monica (Monica@sjbrh.org) at the faith formation office.

If you have any questions please contact the faith formation office at reo@sjbrh.org/860-529-1274.

A Message from our Faith Formation Team 2022-23

It is very important that your child be enrolled in every grade up to and including the Confirmation program in 9th and 10th grade. If your family has not been participating in the faith formation program or Covid has impacted your registration, now is the time to get them back onto the path. Any student interested in preparing for Confirmation starting in 9th grade must first attend the 8th-grade classes.

Our goal is to meet in person twice a month with resources and activities on the faith formation website for those weeks we are not meeting in person.

Thank you for your support and prayers as we strive to partner with you on your child’s faith journey. As always, we are here to support you also with any needs or concerns you have as the year progresses. Email us with any questions at reo@sjbrh.org or call us at 860-529-1274.

Peace,

Your Faith Formation Team,
Monica, Beth, Carol, Linda, and Lori
