Welcome to the Religious Education Program of Divine Savior Parish.
We look forward to working with your children this year and assisting you in their faith formation.
Our catechists are a wonderful group of very dedicated people who offer their time along with their talent and creativity to share the gift of faith with your children.
As the first and foremost models of faith for your children, we ask that you participate at Mass each week to celebrate God's presence in Word and in Sacrament.
We pray that your homes will be a place where the faith of your children will be nourished and strengthened.
