Religious Education at St. Albert the Great

RELIGIOUS EDUCATION/FAITH FORMATION PROGRAM

St. Paul reminds us that Life IS Christ (Phil 1:21). "'Christ Lives in Me' is the is the singular confession of the Christian who has been led by God's grace and who trusts, at the deepest level of being, that true life comes only through the redemptive sacrifice of Jesus Christ" (National Directory for Catechesis, p. 183-184). Many Church documents echo this sentiment.

The goal of our faith formation program for our children and youth is to help every baptized person realize that they were created by God out of love, for love, and to be loved. Therefore, the primary objective of all our program is to help all people realize that they are not only loved by God, but also called by Him to a profound relationship of love with Him and others. Our program accomplishes this by helping people grow in their knowledge and love of God so that they may grow in holiness and fulfill their baptismal calling to become the face of Christ to a world desperate for His love.
