A New Faith Formation Program

As St. John's helps educate the whole family in the Catholic faith, we do believe the children will primarily learn the faith at home. Thus, if the parents are also taught through the program called Transformation to help guide them in the faith. 

This year Faith Formation will meet every other week. We believe that this format will help for a better community for the parish and the students receiving catechesis through the program!
