With the school year starting just around the corner, it is time to start planning for our
2024-2025 catechism program. Our catechism program is for children ages 6-11 that
have been baptised in the catholic faith. Please note that preparation for sacraments is
completed outside of our catechism program however the child is required to have
completed at least one year of our catechism program before preparing for a sacrament.
Here at St. Augustine’s the sacrament of Eucharist is celebrated at age 7 or older,
Reconciliation at age 8 or older and Confirmation at age 12 or older.
Many thanks to those families that have already pre-registered for this year. By the end
of August, you will be receiving an email indicating the date & time we will be starting
this year’s program.
For those families that have not yet registered, there are forms available at the back of the church to be
completed for our catechism program. Please complete the form and leave in the basket provided or place in
the collection basket and it will be given to me. Please ensure to print clearly especially for your email as this
is how I will be communicating with you regarding the program. You can also register using the online form
found on our website at http://www.qasmoncton.com/faith-formation.html Please use the form titled Faith
Formation Submit Online. You do not have to enter the year as it will adjust when I receive the form.
Once I receive your completed form, you will then be placed in one of our groups and you will receive an
email with the date & time your group will be meeting along with the details about the session. If you do not
receive an email within 10 days please check your junk mail or send me an email at
[email protected] to check on receipt of your registration.
If you have any questions concerning our catechism program please feel free to reach out to me via email or
contact the parish office Monday thru Friday. Looking forward to seeing you for a year of faith-filled fun.
