Welcome back to St. Agnes Faith Formation!
Welcome back to St. Agnes Faith Formation! The Pandemic year has taught us some valuable lessons. The most important for our program being that Faith Formation takes place first and foremost in the home. Parents did a wonderful job of encouraging, engaging and simply talking with their children about life, faith, hope and love.
We are open!
In person classes will resume for levels 1 through 6 on Tuesday Oct. 12 from 3-4:15PM. Volunteers will escort the children from Greenport Elementary to St. Agnes, please advise the school that your child will be attending and give permission for them to walk with us. Please be sure to complete your registration form and send it in with the donation before the start of classes. Our program will adhere to all New York State guidelines and safety protocols. Masks will be worn by students and Catechists and social distancing of 3 feet will remain in effect until further notice.
This year for the classes 7-9 we will again use limited in-parish small group gatherings, online video sessions and at home assignments to help our older students on their journey of faith. It is our hope that throughout this year students will continue to grow in relationship with our Lord and others! Regular weekly Wednesday night classes will not be in session. Students are required to attend all scheduled retreats, seminars and gatherings as they occur. These events may be scheduled on a Saturday, Sunday or Wednesday and we will do our best to avoid conflicts with sports, music, drama etc.
