VBS: Diving into God’s Love

August 5-9, 9am-12pm
Take kids deep at our Totally Catholic VBS, Scuba: Diving into God’s Love! Participants will go on an amazing undersea adventure where they’ll experience the ever-flowing, never-ending love of God through Sacred Scripture, the Saints, and the teachings of the Catholic Church. Participant registration is open now to all kids who will be in pre-K – 5th grade in the 2024-2025 school year.

We also have plenty of volunteer opportunities for adults, high schoolers, and middle schoolers. VBS is a fun way to get service hours for school, next year’s Confirmation program, or St. Joseph School parent volunteer hours. Both participants and volunteers can click HERE to Register.


Sacramental Preparation

Registration is Now Open!
These programs are designed to help parents respond to the Church’s call to the “first and foremost educators of their children.”  Sacramental preparation is for children 7 years or older who wish to receive First Reconciliation and First Holy Communion. There is two class times available starting the week of October 7, Mondays from 6:30-8:00pm or Wednesdays from 2:30-4:00pm. To register, click HERE.


Childrens Liturgy of the Word

Just as Jesus welcomed children, we invite them to understand more fully the Word of God through Children’s Liturgy of the Word. This program is on hold during the summer months and will resume in the fall. More details coming soon.
