Religious Education

Our Religious Education classes foster a growing love of the Catholic faith and traditions, knowledge of its fundamental truths, and encourage habits of prayer.  This year, 2020-21, we are excited to roll out a new offering from Ignatius Press called My Catholic Faith Delivered, utilizing both online teaching at home and in-person teaching at the parish. The program includes the same faithful content of Faith and Life curriculum we have been using in years past.

Our program for 2020-21 will be offered in a "flipping the classroom" format where the traditional weekly in class work of reading the text and completing assignments are done at home online. The students will meet in person bi-weekly at the parish hall where the materials learned will be reinforced with activities, sacred art and music, and putting the learning into practice.

Classes meet bi- weekly between Sunday Masses beginning at 9:15am in the parish hall.  Registration is $35 per child with a maximum of $105 per family. Contact Kari Kummet, DRE, kari@stpatricka2.org or call (734)-662-8141 with any questions.

All those with children preparing for a sacrament of Holy Communion or Confirmation need to fill out a Religious Education registration form in August or early September at the latest!  Even if a child won’t be in our Religious Education classes, (is being prepared at a Catholic School or at home) everyone receiving a sacrament in the spring of 2021 needs to be registered for the sacraments by the start of the school year in September. Please see our FIRST COMMUNION and CONFIRMATION pages for more details on sacramental preparation.
