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.

For these red lips, with all their mournful pride,
Mournful that no new wonder may betide,
Troy passed away in one high funeral gleam,
And Usna’s children died.”
