    Sacred Heart Faith Formation

    February is dedicated to the Holy Family! 

    Faith Formation Updates…

    With confirmation right around the corner, this month is busy for our Grade/Level 8 candidates preparing for the sacrament!  This month we held our first sponsor call and on Saturday, February 8th is our confirmation retreat.

    February 9th at 9:30 am we invite our Grade/Level 7 and 8 children to the 9:30 am Mass followed by Hospitality Sunday in the church basement.

    The Feast day of Our Lady of Lourdes is on Tuesday, February 11th.  We are excited that Sacred Heart is hosting the Lourdes Virtual Pilgrimage Experience in our church.  Our Academy and Faith Formation children in Grades 3-8, have been invited to attend this special opportunity (at 1 PM and at 7 PM).   We look forward to learning more about Our Lady of Lourdes, St. Bernadette and all the wonderful things associated with this special shrine.  We are blessed to host this event on Our Lady’s feast day!  Join us and bring your petitions which will be delivered straight to the shrine in France!

    My Catholic Faith Delivered updates…

    All children enrolled in My Catholic Faith Delivered should now be working towards completing through lesson/assessment #23 by the end of February.  Grade/Level 8 must complete and pass ALL their MCFD work by March 1st along with all other requirements in order to participate in the sacrament of Confirmation!


    My Catholic Faith Delivered logins have all been released so students can sign into their classes and begin their coursework.  Instruction will primarily take place at home, encouraging parents to journey with their children as they grow in faith through the online learning platform My Catholic Faith Delivered. Catechists can communicate with their classes through lesson threads and will be hosting Zoom meetings during the months of November, December and February (one each month) to discuss the Saints, Advent/Christmas and Lent/Easter respectively.

    Please pray that our Faith Formation program prepares our children to encounter Jesus and share in the graces and peace that only such an encounter can bring!

    “To hand onto your children.
    the faith you received from your parents,
    is your first duty
    and your greatest privilege as parents.
    The home should be the first school of religion,
    as it must be the first school of prayer.”

    – Bl. Louise-Therese de Montaignac de Chauvance, Apostle of the Sacred Heart

    Reminder…    

    Please remember to practice (at a minimum) the basic Catholic prayers of The Our Father, The Hail Mary and The Glory Be individually (or ideally as a family) each and every day (and night)!
