Discovery with St. Joseph Marello

Discovering how to "Be the extraordinary in ordinary things."
 

Discovery with St. Joseph Marello is a new approach to family catechesis for our parish this 2020-2021 school year.  It will consist of three elements:

Treasure #1: Family Survival Kits:

We will draw upon the activities, liturgical tools, and books throughout the year and provide you with ideas, videos, and other media to support faith, Sacraments, and God at home.  

Treasure #2: Discovery Boxes:

Continuing the "Kit" concept throughout the Liturgical year with smaller boxes specific to the season: All Saints/All Souls, Advent/Christmas, Lent, Easter, and Ordinary Time!  You will be able to continue receiving the Magnifikid and TakeOut Magazine subscriptions monthly.  Then, the boxes will picked-up from the parish bi-monthly, equipped with crafts and resources to celebrate the upcoming feasts and holidays; and learn more about our patron, St. Joseph Marello.  We plan to share ideas between kids and families.  Lastly, Discovery livestreamed in-person events planned, TBA.

Sign-up HERE for Discovery with St. Joseph Marello!

Treasure #3: Receiving the Sacraments of First Reconciliation (Confession) and First Holy Communion - 2nd grade and older:

We will offer formal catechesis with the Signs of Grace program starting in January.  This is available for all 2nd graders and their parents.  Also, we will create a "catch-up" cohort for any 3rd through 5th grade children who have not received the sacraments.

Signs of Grace will be offered in-person, as well as live-streamed.  Both children and parents will be required to participate in these highly educational and spiritually uplifting course.

Registration will be announced in November.
 

Discovery with St. Joseph Marello is a new way for our parish to support family faith!
