RELIGIOUS EDUCATION NEWS

PSR classes will begin Sunday, Aug 30th between 10-11 AM in our parish school. Parents who have not yet registered their children for the program can still sign the children up. This year we are offering onsite classes and we are also offering parents the option of working at home with their children. We do ask that all families register so we can make certain that parents receive all of the resources they need to keep their children on track to receive all sacraments on a timely basis. We are also offering resources for parents who may need to catch up their children on any of the sacraments. Registration forms are available on our parish website or our facebook page or by emailing Iris at Ibounds@stacathedral. org. We also have a special needs class in our Parish School of Religion class which will also help to prepare our children for reception of the sacraments. Confirmation sessions for students in grades 8 and above will begin on Sunday mornings at 10:00 AM in the grade school. The first session will be one for candidates and a parent and will be held on Sunday, Sept 13th in the school library. Parents will need to complete paperwork and bring a copy of the students' Baptismal certificate if they were baptized in a church other than St. Agnes Cathedral. Our parent meeting for students who plan to receive Reconciliation and Eucharist in the coming year will be held Tues, Sept, 15th at 7:00 PM in the school cafeteria. Children should either be enrolled in our parish PSR program or in the Catholic School. Parents who may be home-schooling or an online program will also need to attend this meeting. If a child was not baptized at St. Agnes Cathedral, please bring a copy of their baptismal certificate. Iris B.
