CRE

St. John XXIII Parish is proud to offer our CRE (Catholic Religious Education) program to the young people of the parish. Youth Ministry directs the program for seventh through tenth graders who do not attend a Catholic school. (Eleventh graders participate in the Confirmation preparation program which is run separately from CRE.) CRE meets every other Monday from September to around Easter. And while the program is set up as classes, our goal is to touch all aspects of faith, not just knowing the faith but living our faith through various activities, experiences and projects. For more information, see the CRE Handbook and the Calendar. We ask that all families complete a registration form so we can ensure enough materials - and adult leaders - so this is a meaningful experience for everyone!

In the interest of health and safety, this year we are offering various times and methods of gathering so that we have smaller groups. We will continue to offer every other Monday evening from 6:00-7:30 as well as every other Tuesday or every other Thursday from 4:00-5;30. In addition, for those who are unable to meet in person, we will be offering a virtual session on Wednesday evenings as well as a self-paced home study program. Once you register via Parish Soft, you will be able to indicate your choice for when and how to meet. If you have any questions, feel free to contact the Youth Ministry office. A complete calendar of dates will be released very soon!
