Religious Education: Sacramental Preparation for First Communion and Confirmation
Our Lady of Grace Parish believes that a lifelong faith formation is essential to grow in love and service of our Lord, Jesus Christ. We welcome and encourage all families; children, teens and adults to grow in knowledge of Jesus and the holy, Catholic Church by participating in a wide variety of programs designed to deepen our faith and spirituality. The goal of Religious Education is to provide an opportunity for nurturing and forming our parishioners of all ages in the teachings of Christ our Lord, through the study of Scripture, the Catholic Catechism, traditions of the church and specially selected programs designed for religious education of our young people.
Classes begin in August through April.

RCIA (Rite of Christian Initiation for Adults)
Our Lady of Grace Parish invites its adults who are interested in the process of searching and inquiring about the Catholic way of life. Through RCIA, the Catholic Church extends an invitation to: (1) Those who are not associated with a community of faith and who wish to become Catholic; (2) those who want to convert to Catholicism from another faith. For them, the RCIA is the process through which they will become full-fledged Catholics; and (3) those who want to learn about the Catholic faith. These individuals may be involved in interfaith marriages or simply are actively involved in a Church of a different denomination and they want to learn more about the Catholic faith in the spirit of ecumenism. Meets on Mondays from 7:00 p.m. to 9:00 p.m. Classes begin in September through Easter Vigil (March/April).

Classes are held on Mondays from 7:00 p.m. to 9:00 p.m. in the Parish Office. Classes begin in September through April.

Summer Bible Camp
Our Lady of Grace Parish invites all children entering kindergarten through sixth grade to participate in a week-long summer religious education program that is focused on a specific theme that employs Bible stories, religious songs, arts and crafts, themed-snacks, skits and more.
