“Parents have the unique responsibility for the education of their children; they are the first educators… They teach by their witness of the Faith, through their values and attitudes, by their Christian example of love for Christ and his church.” National Directory for Catechesis 234-235
​
The Catholic Church has always proclaimed that parents are the first educators of their children. The Church of the Resurrection exists primarily to assist you in this mission to grow as Christians, live out the Baptismal promise and educate your children in the faith!
3-5 Year Olds (Wee Praise)
From September through April during the 11:30 am Mass children in Pre-K are welcome to join us for Wee-Praise. We provide this service to parents so that they can attend Mass and their child can still experience faith based activities.
​
We would like to bring back our nursery for 6 month to 3 year olds. If you are interested in volunteering or having your child participate please contact Susan Yost.
​
We also offer a social group called St. Zelie Ministry for moms with children age 0-12 in our pastorate. Please contact erika.rodkey@gmail.com for more information.
Kindergarten-5th Grade
We offer classroom faith formation for children on Sunday Afternoons.
​
We also offer several retreat options, Vacation Bible School over the summer, and fun experiences throughout the year for this age group!
