Please prayerfully consider joining us in this wonderful ministry by sharing your time and talent. People of faith are needed to share this faith with our youngsters and facilitate their learning of God and prayer. Catechists are needed for the following times: Sundays 8-8:45 AM or 10-11 AM.

St. John the Guardian of Our Lady will again be offering Level I Catechesis of the Good Shepherd for pre-school children ages 3, 4, 5 on Sunday mornings from 10-11 AM beginning on October 3. Catechesis of the Good Shepherd is a religious education program that helps children develop a deep and personal relationship with Jesus, the Good Shepherd and a love for Scripture, Liturgy and the Sacraments.
