Family Faith Formation (PSR)

2023 - 2024 PSR Information

Families, we are excited to announce that sacramental preparation for First Communion and Confirmation will be starting soon at St. Michael. Like last year, we will be using the Pathways Formation suite from Faith and Family Life Catholic Ministries. The philosophy of Pathways is to equip parents to teach, share faith, and pray with their children as they lead a series of family meetings in their home through a variety of hands-on and innovative activities.

For the first two months, everyone will go through the Seek program, which is designed for families to be invited on a journey to discover anew the good news of the faith. This will help the family be more familiar with the program, but also to dive deeper into the faith and why the family is important for teaching and sharing the faith.

After Seek, 2nd graders preparing for First Communion will be using the Mend and Nourish programs, which are designed to help families encounter Jesus and experience the beauty of the Mass and Reconciliation as it connects to daily life. Dive deeper into the incredible gift God gives us through Reconciliation and the Eucharist.

Also, after Seek, 8th graders preparing for Confirmation will be using the Root and Zeal programs, through which families will be led toward a more intimate union with Christ, and be given a lively familiarity with the Holy Spirit, in order to be more capable of assuming the apostolic responsibilities of Christian life.

An informational table will be in Marian Hall after all the masses on Saturday Aug. 12 and Sunday Aug. 13. There will be a meeting with more information about Pathways for those who have more questions or want to be familiar on Aug. 20th in Upper Meeting Room. A family kick off meeting will be held on Sep. 10, where families will be given program materials. You can complete your registration below. Please reach out to Jake Asuncion with any questions by emailing him at [email protected]. The registration fee is $215 per family. If you cannot afford these programs, please reach call the office or email Jake Asuncion.  Registration deadline is Friday Aug. 25.
