Saint Madeline Parish Religious Education Program's Home Page
Our PREP year in 2020 will begin the week of September 21. However, we will not be returning to the classrooms at St. James Regional Catholic School. After reviewing various possibilities, keeping your children safe at home to continue their faith journeys is the best option right now. Bringing your children closer to Jesus and the Sacraments is our combined responsibility as parents and catechists. As we approach September, more information will be shared on our exact process of a blend of virtual lessons (recorded, not Real Time) with parent directed follow-up.
WEEKLY VIRTUAL LESSONS CAN BE FOUND ON THE PREP TAB TO THE LEFT.
