Starting this Summer, St. Mary’s will host a training retreat for any adult interested in the Catechesis of the Good Shepherd program.
This Formation Retreat will deepen both the participant’s experience of God’s grace and his/her understanding of scripture and liturgy while also concretely preparing the participant to develop and facilitate an atrium for 3-6 year old children.
For More Info. & To Register: Visit our table in the Narthex after any weekend Mass or contact: Kelsey Matchen 376-7204 ext. 3008 or [email protected]
The Catechesis of the Good Shepherd is a Christian formation program for children 3-6 years old. It seeks to create a sacred, “hands-on” space for children called an atrium in which both the child and the adult can hear, ponder, and celebrate the most essential mysteries of the Christian faith as revealed in the Scriptures and Liturgy. St. Mary’s currently offers three CGS Atriums for pre-K and Kindergarten during our Sunday Faith Formation time.
