Faith Development / HI-life for children in pre-school through grade 4 involves attending intergenerational HI-life Gatherings with their families and Sunday morning grade-level sessions. The Children’s Faith Development Sessions which are held between the Sunday Liturgies enhance and reinforce the theme of our HI-life year and focus on age-appropriate Catholic doctrine.
At our HI-life Gatherings parents and children learn together about our Catholic faith and are expected to continue the learning at home aided by resources in the HI-life@home kit.
Additional parent and child sessions are offered to help prepare children for First Reconciliation and First Eucharist.

- participation in six intergenerational HI-life Gatherings
