​Children's Faith Formation, grades 1-6
** Children's Faith Formation is an at-home program for the 2020-2021 school year.**
​
Children's Faith Formation Mission:

The mission for Children's Faith Formation at Sacred Heart Parish is to assist parents in their primary responsibility as educators in the faith. This is accomplished by journeying with their children as they develop a deeper relationship with Jesus Christ through learning about Jesus with classroom discussions, exploration of Scripture, rich multimedia content, and fun games and crafts. 

Faith Formation Classes
Faith Formation classes for children (grades 1-6) are held weekly, September through May  on Sundays. Parents are encouraged to participate in Adult Faith Formation opportunities throughout the week in order to grow together as a family in the faith. There are also special inter-generational sessions during the year including Bingo Night, Advent Night, and Lent Night. Family nights are scheduled for 6:30-8:00 pm on Wednesdays during the school year.

For questions or inquiries about Sacred Heart Parish's Children’s Faith Formation program, please contact the Faith Formation Office at 719-633-8711 x105 or email formationdirector@sacredheartcos.org.

Online registration for the 2020-2021 Faith Formation year is now available! Register your family today! 

Rite of Christian Initiation of Children (RCIC)
If you have a child interested in becoming Catholic or completing their initiation into the Catholic Church through the Sacraments of Baptism, Confirmation, and/or Eucharist, please contact the Director of Faith Formation at formationdirector@sacredheartcos.org or 719-633-8711 x 105.
 
All children between the ages of 7 and 18 who have not been baptized will be guided through full initiation into the Catholic Church through the RCIC. Though the intent of the RCIC is to initiate children into the life of the Catholic Church, the process continues through Faith Formation programs for the years following their initiation. Learning and growing in the Catholic Faith is a lifelong process and one that requires a life dedicated to the teachings of Jesus Christ.
 
RCIC sessions begin in the Fall and conclude during the Easter season. These sessions are on Sunday mornings and begin during the 9:00 am liturgy, starting in September at Sacred Heart Church when candidates and catechumens are dismissed to break open the Word and discuss their Catholic Faith. The session continues through 11:15 am during which the children unpack key topics on the Catholic Faith and discuss questions on their heart.

Sacramental Preparation
Reconciliation & First Holy Communion
Children wishing to receive the Sacraments of Reconciliation and First Holy Communion in the second grade are required by diocesan policy to complete 1st grade Faith Formation prior to the year of preparation during 2nd grade. Preparation includes classroom instruction, parent information sessions, sacramental conversations with families and Faith Formation staff, and a retreat prior to receiving each sacrament. The Sacrament of Reconciliation is celebrated in a communal service in late January or Early February. First Eucharist is celebrated during the Easter season. 

Volunteer Catechists
Please consider sharing in the faith formation of our children. If you would be interested in becoming a catechist or classroom assistant, contact the Faith Formation Office at 719-633-8711 x105 or email formationdirector@sacredheartcos.org.
