| Early
Childhood Faith Formation (FAMILY MOMENTS) (For 3,4,5 year olds or 6 year
olds in Kindergarten) "People were bringing even infants
to Him that He might touch them." Luke 18:15 Did you know
that children, even three-year-olds, are capable of experiencing God in their
daily lives? Preschoolers/kindergarteners are so open to learning about God that
this is a PRIME time to begin watering the seeds that were planted at their baptism.
Why not enroll your preschool child in this unique parent-child faith formation
program at St. Blase. · Frequency: The Early Childhood Faith
Formation Program meets approximately twice a month from October May. Full
catechetical sessions at the beginning of the month are 1-1/2 hours long which
include a session designed around a specific faith theme, craft, storytelling
and prayer. Music and Praise in the middle of the month are 45 minutes long in
which all participants; parents and children move and sing to praise music. ·
What if I can't bring my child to a session? Grandparents or another significant
other person in your child's life may accompany them. · How do
I register? Come into the parish office to fill out a registration form. If
your child was baptized outside of St. Blase, please bring along their baptismal
certificate. · Is there babysitting available? Sorry there
is not. But to make things a bit more accommodating, the 45 minute Music Praise
Session in the middle of the month is also enjoyed by the very, very young children.
Feel free to bring your infants or toddlers to this middle-of-the month session. If
you have any questions, call or email Janel
Mariani, Coordinator at (586) 268-2244 or janel.mariani@stblase.org. |
