RELIGIOUS
EDUCATION AT THE BASILICA OF
ST. ADALBERT
The
family is the primary community in which faith, love, and
Christian values are shared and nurtured. Our Basilica
Parish stands as a partner to assist you as parents, a child’s
primary educator, in the physical, psychological, moral, social,
and spiritual development of each child. Our Basilica
Religious Education Program is a home-based program. We
provide you with the materials to use, following the Diocesan
approved curriculum and recommended textbooks. Lessons
are covered in the home. Students gather approximately
once a month as a group (Sunday following the 10:30 A.M. Liturgy) This
whole group gathering focuses on the seasons of the Church’s
Liturgical calendar, along with Bible stories and scripture.
As
we seek to form disciples of Jesus, the Religious Education
program at the Basilica of St. Adalbert promotes knowledge of the
faith, liturgy and the sacraments. Through prayer and
catechesis we promote moral formation to prepare Christian young
men and women to participate actively in the life and mission of
the Church to share the Good News of Jesus Christ.
