RELIGIOUS EDUCATION PROGRAM
Dear REY Families:
Welcome to the St. Gerald Religious Education for Youth Program or as we are affectionately known around here as "REY". Our program is on Sunday morning 9:00 am to 10:15 am from the end of September to the end of April. As Catholics, we're called to give our children faith formation every year starting with Kindergarten. We offer classes from Kindergarten through 8th grade. Sacraments are a 2 year faith formation. Our students receive the sacraments of 1st Reconciliation and 1st Holy Eucharist by attending 1st and 2nd grade religious education. Students recieve the sacrament of Confirmation by attending 7th and 8th grade religious education. It's equally as important for children to attend religious education during the non-sacrament years (3rd-6th grade). We also offer High School Confirmation and RCIA-RCIC.
The Sacrament of 1st Communion and Confirmation
each require 2 full years of Faith Preparation.
Mass attendance is mandatory.
