MISSION STATEMENT
Our Mission is to assist parents in catechizing and forming their children so to foster a deep love of Jesus; to know, love and serve God; and to build the kingdom of God.
VISION STATEMENT
Every Catholic family would live as witnesses of Jesus Christ in the world.
OUR FAMILY-CENTERED APPROACH
This year we are offering a family-centered Catechesis. The resources we'll be using will gather families together to grow in love of Christ and his church. We want to support families in their vital role of being witnesses of Christ who can change the world.
ALIVE FAMILY FAITH FORMATIONThis is a family-centered Catechesis designed to engage the whole family. The resource we’ll be using is designed for families with children in grades 3rd-9th, but is likely to draw slightly younger and high school aged children. Resources to engage younger children in the program will be given each week. Parents will also have access to videos on how to integrate the Catholic faith into family life and resources to grow in their own understanding of the content they will receive as a family each week.
The Alive Family Catechesis runs on a 4 week cycle. Every week for three weeks parents will receive a 45 minute video that they can watch at any time that fits their schedule. Families will play together, laugh together, learn together, and pray together. The 4th week of the cycle the parish will host a community family night inviting the whole community together as the family of God to grow in deeper relationship with God and one another.
Register directly on the ALIVE program website http://alive.damascus.net with the group code CHILLICOTHEWAVERLY
The cost per family is $10 a week for 10 weeks or $100 one-time payment. Make payments to St. Peter Catholic Church noted as ALIVE registration fee.

Sacramental Preparation
SACRAMENTAL PREPARATION
For all children and their families who are preparing for the sacraments of First Reconciliation, First Holy Communion, and Confirmation we will be having a hybrid preparation where much of the Catechesis is done as a family and monthly parish led catechesis.
FIRST RECONCILIATION & FIRST HOLY COMMUNION
For all children (commonly in 1st and 2nd grade) and their families preparing for First Reconciliation and First Holy Communion we will be using the Blessed program from Dynamic Catholic. This resource uses short animated videos to introduce essential topics for every child to understand when preparing for these life-changing sacraments. Parents and children will use the videos and workbooks at home to prepare for the sacrament. Check out the website for a sneek peak https://dynamiccatholic.com/blessed.

Pre-K & KINDERGARTEN
COMING NEXT YEAR!
As of this year we do not have the resources for the catechesis of 3-6 year olds, but we are in need of volunteers to help us get ready to launch a pheonominal Catechesis program for these children next year.
If you are passionate about catechesis for these children of God or have children please contact Andrea McLean at faithfamily@stpeterchillicothe.com or 740-701-2654.
