Faith Formation
Here at St. Stephen Parish, we strive to provide a program that is both instructive and fun! We recognize at these formative years, that relationship with each other and the Church community is vital in how our children encounter Christ and His teachings. We have a dynamic and committed staff of teachers, lay and clergy, whose goal is to joyfully engage your child and plant the seeds of faith, which they will carry with them their whole life.
"But grow in the grace and knowledge of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. To Him be glory both now and forever! Amen." (2 Peter 3:18)
Our Aim
This ministry helps parents to fulfill the promises they made at their child's baptism by teaching children the riches of our Catholic faith and helping them to come to know and love Jesus more fully through the sacraments.
