Good Shepherd Parish Religious Education assists parents in the catechesis of their children. We participate with joy in handing on the Faith to our children. Elementary P.R.E. classes are held during the academic year on Sunday mornings at 9:00 A.M.
We have a Level I Atrium for Catechesis of the Good Shepherd and are working towards Level II in the future. The Catechesis of the Good Shepherd utilizes the philosophy and methods of Maria Montessori in the catechesis of children. The Atrium is a holy place where children are educated to wonder, fall in love with God, and are prepared for greater participation in the Liturgy.
Confirmation preparation is held on Wednesdays from 6:00 to 7:00 p.m. at the Parish House (please click the "Calendar of Events" button on the Home page for dates or see the Calendar, below).

Recently the 7th and 8th grade Confirmation students assisted the children from the Atrium with their Liturgical Color work. It was a wonderful experience for both groups!
Congratulations to the twenty-two young people who were confirmed by Bishop Spalding on Thursday eveningm March 10th! It was a beautiful Mass followed by a great reception. Thanks to everyone who worked so hard to make it a special event.
On May 8th eight of our children received their First Holy Communion. Please congratulate them on having participated for the first time in this holy Sacrament!
