Children and Parents
The parish has a number of programs specifically designed for families. The Christian Formation Program (CFP) provides religious learning from mid-nursery to 10th grade, as well as adult and parent programs. Volunteers supervise infants to three-year-olds in the Cherub Nursery. There is also a youth ministry program and programs for adults and children who have not been baptised. A weekly study group allows church mothers to study books together, pray, and build community.
