Elementary School Education
To assist parents who are the primary educators of their children (CCC 2223), St. John Neumann offers two methods of religious education for elementary school students:
Catechesis of the Good Shepherd
Level 1: Grades Pre-K (Age 4) Sundays 9:45 am – 10:45 am
Level 2: Grades 1 through 3 Wednesdays 6:00 pm – 7:30 pm
Religious Education
Grades K through 4 Sundays 9:45 am – 10:45 am
Pray With Your Child
Each year in religious education gives children an opportunity to learn more prayers, helping them to develop a strong relationship with God. By praying together each day, you’ll help your child commit each of these prayers to memory. You can click and download prayer cards for each age (Pre-K through Grade 4) below.
Want to be involved?
In order to pass the faith onto the next generation, we need volunteers—both teenagers and adults—to help with the religious education program. Youth who have received the Sacrament of Confirmation are welcome to assist in the classroom. It’s a great opportunity to put your faith and discipleship into action!
Adult volunteers are always necessary as well! Your gifts and talents will inspire young people to strengthen their faith, and you can serve in the following ways:
Teaching (Catechist)
Substitute Teaching
Door Monitor
Special Events
Floater (help where needed most on the day!)
