St. Mary’s offers a variety of faith formation options that encourage and support children and families along our lifelong journey of faith.
Youth in grades Pre-K-12 come to receive their catechetical instruction and build a sense of belonging to a Catholic community. Classes are 1 hour and 15 minutes and are offered at either 4:15 or 6:30 pm. Pre-K and Kindergarten classes are not offered at 6:30, but are offered once a month on Sunday.
St. Mary’s Parish Life Center is home of Frassati Catholic Academy. It is there that students in grades Pre-K-8 receive their catechetical instruction along with their regular classes on a daily basis. For more information, visit the Frassati Catholic Academy website.
Catechesis begins at home. Parents are provided with materials in order to teach their children how to live out the Catholic faith.

Pray as you Go – Listen Now
Pray as you go is a daily prayer session, designed to go with you wherever you go, to help you pray whenever you find time, but particularly while traveling to and from work, study, etc.
A new prayer session is produced every day of the working week and one session for the weekend. It is not a ‘Thought for the Day’, a sermon or a Bible-study, but rather a framework for your own prayer.
10-13 minutes, combines music, scripture and some questions for reflection.
