CRE: Catholic Religious Education

CRE 2021-2022 (Catholic Religious Education) WHO: All O.L.S. Catholic children kindergarten through 6th grade, attending public school or home-schooled, whether or not they need sacraments.

WHAT: Religious Education, also known as faith formation, catechist classes, CCD

WHY: Grow in faith! Pray better! Learn more about the Bible! Grow in understanding of Catholicism! Experience community with children whose parents have the same values! Just “getting” sacraments is not enough. Children (like adults) also have to know about the faith and grow in their relationship with Christ.

WHEN: Three options:
1) Sunday mornings (following the Washoe County School District calendar): 8:45-9:45 am making it easy to go to 10:00 am Mass. (Snack will be served 8:15-8:40.) Because Mass times changed when the pandemic began, our Sunday morning CRE time has also changed.

2) Wednesday afternoons (early release day): 3:45-4:45 PM. (Snack will be served 3:25-3:40)

3) Home schooled by parents. (No distance learning classes this year)

WHERE: Our Lady of the Snows Catholic school; use the Lander Street entrance. Snack time begins downstairs in the lunchroom. 

 

How much does it cost? $75 per child for the year. BUT no child is EVER turned away because their parents cannot afford the tuition. All are welcome! 
 

Catechists needed (teachers of the faith)! We have two catechists per classroom, so we need about 24 catechists. Curriculum and training are provided. Tuition is free for children if their parent is a catechist. Contact Lauri Anne at dre@olsparish.com for more information.
Classes begin the week of September 12.
