  • 2024 St. Dominic Young Disciples Religious Education/Jóvenes Discípulos Educación Religiosa

    Sep 4 – May 19

    Wednesday evenings starting September 2024

    Young Disciples is open to all parish children in 1st-5th grade!

    *If your child is seeking the Sacraments of Baptism, 1st Reconciliation, and/or 1st Communion- registering them for Young Disciples is the first step! We will form our Sacramental preparation classes based on our Young Disciples registration data. 

    Parents- choose the class that best fits your child! 

    Young Disciples 101:

    Your child could benefit from a robust introductory Catholic faith formation experience. They would develop a firm foundation of their faith by attending a class that started from the beginning- creation, the entrance of sin into the world, God's saving plan through Jesus, and our response to His love. They could use some guidance in forming a regular prayer life. Mass may be a new experience for the children. This class is ideal for newcomers, children entering faith formation for the first time (or first time in a long time), children in RCIA, and children whose parents discern that their children could benefit from experiencing 101 before 201.

    Parents express an openness to learn, themselves! They are on their own journey to encountering the Lord/growing in faith through the Catholic Church. They are open to the community building/ formative offerings we have for adults on Wednesday nights. 

    Young Disciples 201:

    Your child expresses a desire or is ready to go deeper in their faith- they have a regular prayer life, the faith is talked about/practiced at home, they ask questions about God and our faith, they have been regularly involved in Children's Ministry/faith formation for more than a year, etc. Parents have seen the fruits of the Christian life in their child- they exhibit remorse for sin, show virtue in daily life, and talk to others about God. They are Baptized, and if applicable, have received 1st Communion. They attend weekly Mass with their parents/guardians.

    Their parents understand their role as the primary catechist, the importance of weekly Mass attendance, and model a Sacramental life/worldview. Parents are keenly interested in their own deeper formation in the faith.
