JOIN OUR NATIVE PLANT GARDEN PROJECT!
The Care for Our Common Home Task Force and Faith Formation are joining together to continue work on the Native Plant Garden. We hope to enlarge the garden and plant new native plants which will attract pollinators and birds. It will not only be a beautiful addition to our parish grounds, but will be a tool to teach about the importance on Native Plants.
We need YOUR help to do this - we are inviting all from our parish community to sign up to help. Even if you can help just once during the summer, please sign up with your phone and email – we will contact you as soon as dates have been set to start the project.
Faith Formation for Children and Youth
Faith Formation Classes: This year, we are using Gospel Weeklies by Pflaum Publishing as our main text in our Faith Formation meetings! They are differentiated by grade level group as follows:
Promise - K/1
Good News - 2/3
Venture - 4/5/6
Visions - 7/8
In-Person Faith Formation Sessions: Sundays 10:15-11:15am
Children’s Liturgy of the Word: When we gather for Mass on Sunday mornings at 9:00am and 11:30am, the children are invited to go with a catechist during the readings and homily. If you would be interested in supporting this ministry, even once every month or two during either Sunday liturgy, please contact Michael Songer at allsaintsfaithformation@syrdio.org or (315) 466-8482.
