Given current circumstances, I’m sad to say that we won’t return to the school for CFF this academic year. But this doesn’t mean that CFF will end. I’ve asked our amazing catechists to stay in contact with you in order to make sure that you have formation support as we continue to prepare for First Holy Communions.
If your child’s teacher hasn't been in touch yet, please let me know and I'll be happy to give you some direction on continued sacramental preparation.
With no indication of when we'll be able to return to public liturgies, it’s impossible to predict when First Communions will take place, but our intention is to schedule them shortly after our return to public Masses. As soon as we have a date, we'll let you know.
Please continue to check your email accounts for Flocknote messages, as I'll continue to share formation resources, including brief formation videos for you to share with your children. If you haven’t been receiving Flocknote emails, please let us know so that we can check your contact information. (You might want to check in your spam folder.)
I look forward to the time we can regather as a parish family. Please let us know if you need anything.
Know that your families are in our prayers.
In Christ,
