Church School and Youth Choir Registrations Available Online

Catechesis of the Good Shepherd for children in grades 1 to 6 is an approach to the religious formation of children. It is rooted in the Bible and the liturgy of the church, using the educational principles of Maria Montessori. Children gather in an "atrium", a sacred room prepared for them, containing simple yet beautiful materials that they work with. Please use our church school online registration form to register your child(ren) for the church Children Programs.


The Youth Choir sings every Sunday, warming up with the Adults at 9:30 am, going to church school, returning during the offertory and usually singing during Communion. After a quick break for juice and cookies, we return to the balcony to rehearse for a half hour. Please use our youth choir online registration form to register your child(ren) for the youth choir.
