HOLY TRINITY RELIGIOUS
EDUCATION PROGRAM
REGISTRATION 2016 – 2017
DEADLINE: AUGUST 5, 2016
Class sizes are limited—First Received, First Enrolled.
Parent/Guardian:
The 2016-2017 religion year will begin on August 31st with an opening Mass for all families at 6:30PM. We are blessed to live in an area that gives us the opportunity to share our faith both in and out of the classroom. We would love to see all families participate; please plan to attend.
Each year we strive to increase the faith lives of our volunteers, students, and families through the religion program. Please take a moment to read our expectations and mission statements.
Our Expectations
Our teachers will teach the doctrines of the Catholic faith including, but not limited to, the Bible and Tradition, the Sacraments, the Ten Commandments, Prayer Life, the Life of Jesus, Saints, Church History, and Living Our Faith.
a. All teachers/aides and monitors are volunteer. Without them, we would not be able to teach our faith.
They deserve our gratitude and respect.
b. Outside of the classroom we expect, not only our volunteers, but, you as a family, to reinforce the teachings of the faith and be living examples of our faith. We expect you to attend church on Sundays and Holy Days of Obligation, as these are mandatory days of attendance for all Catholics.
Our teachers will do their best to create an educational and enjoyable environment.
c. Discipline issues which cause the teacher to constantly interrupt the lesson are not enjoyable for the teacher, the student, or the rest of the class.
d. Discipline issues have increased over the years. Any assistance you can give us in reinforcing respect is appreciated.
Our Mission
Holy Trinity Parish will strive to become a truly Christian Catholic community by working together with our families, to educate our children, and grow in our faith. Through the guidance of the Holy Spirit, we, as Holy Trinity Parishioners, will share in God’s love and friendship as we gain the confidence necessary to be a witness to others by our God-centered actions and words.
We look forward to a wonderful year of faith and fellowship.
