The Child Ministry Program is designed for preschool children through sixth grade.  We strive to provide a solid foundation that will allow your child's faith-life to be a part of everything they do now and as they grow up.  We are Christ-centered, our goal is to help your child learn about the Catholic Faith and to become Christ-like in their words, thoughts, and actions.  We also want to help you, their parents, grow in your own faith.

Faithful Play
A child-centered, hands-on approach to teach your child about the Bible and our Catholic Faith. Faithful play is used to enhance your three to five year old child's understanding of the Bible and their own faith.
Studies show that the best time for children to form lasting relationships is from the age of eighteen months to five years old.  Our goal is to help you help your child form a lasting relationship with Jesus through Faithful Play. Denise 284-6472 or murred@stjohn23rd.org
