Children (K-5)

St Mark utilizes a family catechesis model, where parents and children will attend together at the parish. Children attend three session per month, and parents attend one session per month. Sessions are on Sundays at 1:30 pm OR 3:30 pm.

We understand that family life is busy with many activities that compete for time and attention. The Family Catechesis model, however, will give you easy and practical tools to integrate our beautiful Catholic faith into the rhythm of daily life and in your domestic church at home. Family catechesis will be “a school for the Lord’s service,” not just learning about the faith, but also how to live it out.
