While we’re in the height of a gorgeous Maine summer, we are indeed gearing up for the next season of Faith Formation sessions for children who will be preparing, in their first or second year, to receive their First Reconciliation, First Communion, and Confirmation sacraments. Faith Formation sessions will be held at the parish hall before Mass each Sunday from 8:45 – 9:20, followed by the 9:30 Mass.

The 9:30 Mass on September 18th will be a Welcome Mass, with the first Faith Formation session on September 25th – which will be a combined group, including parents. Stay tuned for more details in the bulletin throughout August, including meaningful plans for year 3 and beyond.

We’re using a team-teaching approach, and would appreciate two more adults to round out the catechist teams. As we look to schedule an orientation time, it’s not to soon to consider how you might be a part of this important part of the mission of putting our faith into action. Call or email Jane at the parish office to become involved. You’ll be glad you did!!

If you have already registered your child(ren) for years one or two in the 2022/2023 school year, thank you. If not, please complete and submit the form available on our web site https://ladyofhopemaine.org/faith-formation-registration/ 

Enjoy these summer days finding God in all things!
