Parents are the first teachers and the primary catechists of their children. St. Raphael Parish assists parents in preparing their child for the sacrament of Eucharist. Scripture study, prayer, reflection, and discussion take place at home with parent and child using home study books.
This page contains:
Grade-specific glossaries developed by the Archdiocese of Washington Office for Catechesis for parish Religious Education.
Pacing Guides which schedule chapters in Finding God 2021, Archdiocesan standards and indicators for each grade level, and other events and programs into the Religious Education class calendar.
It is our hope that parents will use the resources on this page to reinforce their children's Religious Education classes. Thank you!
