A Note From Our Director,

Dear Parents,
I’d like to welcome you and your family to St. John Vianney Parish’s Family Faith Formation program. It is a blessing and privilege to be a part of your child’s faith formation. 
While this parish’s role in teaching the faith is of the utmost importance, it is also crucial that you as parents know that you are the “first preachers of the faith” for your children (Lumen Gentium, 11). As such, your home is where your children learn how to love others, work, forgive, pray, and live a life centered on Christ. Your commitment to your faith, and the example you set, are going to leave an enormous impression on your children. In other words, your participation as parents in this process is essential!
At St. John Vianney Parish, it is our goal to provide you with the necessary resources to facilitate faith formation for your entire family. We will have classes on two Sundays each month. On the first Sunday parents, you participate with your child in a hands-on lesson. For the next Sunday class, your children will be in a classroom while parents have their faith formation session with the goal that parents are better equipped to assist their children outside of the classroom. 
Regular attendance at Mass, participation, and reception of the sacraments of the Eucharist and Reconciliation, and family prayer time will deepen and strengthen the religious education your children will receive. 
We are here to assist and answer any questions or concerns that you may have. It is a great blessing to be a part of your family’s religious education. 
In Christ,
Valerie Parzyck, DRE St. John Vianney Parish
