What is Family Formation?
St. Rose of Lima supports families in raising their children in the Catholic faith by partnering with them in the learning process.  This dynamic and engaging process, produced and designed to strengthen the family and stimulate lifelong learning is called Family Formation, which is designed for children in grades K-6.

When is Family Formation offered? (2022-2023 schedule listed below) 
Once per month on Sunday, 3:00-4:30pm (FULL)
or Tuesday, 6:30-8:00pm.  

For the remaining three weeks of the month, the family completes a lesson at home using materials that were distributed and explained at St. Rose. The weekly lessons take approximately one hour to complete. These lessons bring the whole family together to grow together in faith and love for Christ, the Church, and one another.

Sacraments:  First Reconciliation and First Recommunion Preparation is a two year process.
Children enroll in grade 1 Family Formation and begin the preparation process to celebrate Reconciliation and First Communion in grade 2.

Children in grade 3-6 who are in need of Baptism, Reconciliation, or First Communion, and their parents, enroll in RCIC1 (Rite of Christian Initiation - Year 1) where the foundations of the Catholic faith are taught.  This class is two times per month on Sundays, 9:30-am-10:50am.  Full calendar listed below.
In year two, the family participates in Family Formation and the child celebrates the sacraments.
