Our children's Religious Education Program is underway for 2021-2022. We are filled with joy to see your children once again — or for the very first time! We are eager to bring the love of our awesome God and a deeper knowledge of our Catholic faith to the children of St. Charles.
Religion classes are "in person" on Sunday mornings from 9:45 – 10:55 AM in the Rectory. You can print a registration form or get one in the church vestibule or at the Parish Office.
We are also looking for volunteers! If you enjoy working with children and would like to help with our ministry as a catechist or classroom assistant, we would love to hear from you.
(We will keep up with the latest guidance from the Archdiocese of Baltimore and the State of Maryland regarding the safety of our children, and we will adjust the program accordingly in the future as needed.)
Dear St. Charles families ~ for our 2021-2022 parish program and ministry year, we have two forms from the Archdiocese of Baltimore that need to be completed for children before returning to the parish campus. All families must sign the forms before their children may attend Religious Education classes at St. Charles Borromeo Parish. Each of these forms can be reviewed, printed, signed at home, and brought to the first class. We will also have blank forms available at the first class. [Continue reading the explanation letter...]
Assumption of Risk Statement (required before attending class)
Children preparing for Reconciliation and Eucharist have their sacramental preparation on the 3rd Saturday of each month in 2021-2022 (beginning November 20, 2021) from 12:30 – 1:30 PM in the rectory basement meeting room. For more details, or to register, please contact Allison Mooney.
Parents are reminded of the Archdiocesan policy that children preparing for Sacraments — First Reconciliation, First Eucharist, Confirmation — must be enrolled in a parish Religious Education program or a Catholic school for at least one year prior to beginning their immediate preparation.
Want to volunteer with us? Awesome! Please contact Donna Cooper at charlesst@comcast.net, and remember to complete VIRTUS first.
