• Must be a registered parishioner.
• Copy of Baptismal Certificate.

The CCD Program is intended for Children from 1st-5th grade.      

     St. Patrick Catholic Church gives children a place to learn about God and their religion; to grow emotionally and spiritually; and to have fun while forming friendships that can last a lifetime.  By offering opportunities for religious education, spiritual formation and for social development, St. Patrick hopes to encourage young children to be fully involved in parish life as they grow.  By focusing not only on the spiritual, but also the social, children learn that church life can be fulfilling and at the same time fun and rewarding. Our program is open to children in 3rd- 5th grade even after having received the sacraments. .
