Welcome and Thank You for Choosing Santa Rosa de Lima for your child's faith formation. We thank you for allowing us to collaborate with you in the formation of your children and teens. It is truly an honor.

We support you as the primary catechists and thank you for remembering the promise that you made at your child's baptism -- the promise to raise your children in the Catholic faith.

Faith Formation begins in the home, and is augmented by systematic catechesis, spiritual support and prayers from your parish community. With the commitment of the parish, Santa Rosa de Lima:

    served over 178 children and teens for religious education formation and youth ministry,
    and formed 24 children and teens for the sacraments from Baptism to Confirmation.

                                                     **************************************************
