Parish School of Religion

Family Shared Faith is the key to a lasting faith and is the best gift we can give our children! At times like these, when schedules are out of whack and even friends are off limits, our kids need the comfort of Jesus more than ever! I highly encourage you to watch Mass together on Sunday. There are many links on YouTube. Here is a link for streamed Mass from the St. Louis Cathedral Basilica: http://cathedralstl.org/live/ (Sunday at 10 a.m. and Monday thru Saturday at 8 a.m.). See the Family Mass link to the right for more Mass resources.

Time at home presents a unique opportunity to share the faith with our children. Online, age appropriate enrichment resources have been added here to support you in these efforts, including a link to the Finding God workbooks we use in class (grades 1st-7th). Parents will receive instructions via a broadcast message on how to access their child’s individual online workbook. These can be found in the grade links to the right. Grades Pre-K and K also have resources that correspond with their classroom learning in the grade links. Confirmation students should click on the Confirmation link for instruction. Some really great St. Louis Archdiocese recommended resources can be found in the Faith Formation link at the top of the PSR Menu to the right.

We have made the difficult decision to postpone First Holy Communion from the originally scheduled date of Saturday, May 2nd. We will continue to discuss options as this unprecedented situation unfolds and will keep in touch with families. First Holy Communion is a joyful highlight and priority of the school year. We will make it happen, no matter when that may be. Our May 13th Confirmation date is tentative. We will know more after direction from the Archdiocese and will be in contact with families. The REAP Retreat scheduled for Saturday, April 25 has been canceled until further notice. We encourage students to continue their journey toward Confirmation by working through the assignments in their workbooks. More details regarding adjusted assignments may be found on the Confirmation page.

Blessings,
