Ready, Active Participants (6, 7, and 8 grades)
What our young people need today are not adults who will hand over information, but adults who will hand over themselves and the witness of their own faith life.
Ready Active Participants are our 6th, 7th and 8th grade students who live in our parish boundaries and attend our local public schools.
The entire RAP staff intends to go to great lengths to make this program a fun, faith filled experience for your teen. Grade 6 curriculum is the Old Testament of the Bible. Grade 7 is studying the life of Jesus through the New Testament. Grade 8 catechesis is based on St. John Paul II's, "Theology of the Body".

I Am Always with You
Jesus instituted the seven sacraments to draw us close to His heart, to nourish and heal us in our spiritual journeys, and to properly equip us to do His good work on earth. Jesus knew the struggles, temptations, and potentials falls that would await each of us, so He gave us the gift of the sacraments as a strategic, spiritual source of grace to help us reach our destination – heaven and eternal life – safely and assuredly. The sacraments are God’s powerful presence all around us, touching all the stages and important moments of Catholic life. They give us a share in the divine life and help us to grow in holiness.
Jesus in the Sacraments
The seven sacraments are intimate encounters with the living Christ;
a comforting reminder that we perpetually loved and NEVER alone.
The sacraments are not just something you can learn from a book – they are something to experience. They are ALIVE. They have the power to transform us completely and accomplish the unimaginable in our world!
It is in this spirit of hope that we have chosen the 2020-21 Parish Religious Education Theme:I Am Always with You – Jesus in the Sacraments
Each month of the school year, we will focus on a particular Sacrament and
ask the Holy Spirit to inspire us into ACTION.

October: Holy Orders
November: Anointing of the Sick

January: Baptism

March: Eucharist
