Catholic Religious Education (CRE)

St. John XXIII Parish is proud to offer our CRE (Catholic Religious Education) program to the young people of the parish. CRE directs the program for Kindergarten 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 for grades K-8th meets on Mondays from September to April; 9th and 10th graders have the option to pick from various days (Sunday, Monday or Wednesday). We also offer a summer option for our elementary age (K-6th grades) young people. 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!
