Welcome!

You have reached the online registration portal for our

2025–2026 Religious Education Program.

Please choose the option that best fits your child’s needs.

*PLEASE NOTE: If you are registering more than one child, a separate registration must be completed for each child.*

***Kindly be advised that when registering your child for one of the programs listed below, it is essential to thoroughly review all instructions and ensure that each step is completed in full. Please note that your child’s registration for Religious Education will not be finalized until all requirements are met. Therefore, before beginning the registration process, we strongly encourage you to print this 2025-2026 Religious Education Registration Checklist [click here].***

1. Sacramental Preparation for Baptized Children: Select this option if your child has already been baptized and will be preparing for a sacrament this year. Before proceeding further, we strongly encourage you to print and follow this 2025-2026 Religious Education Registration Checklist [click here].

• First Reconciliation & First Holy Communion – Grade 2

• Confirmation – Grade 11; however, older baptized students who have received their First Holy Communion but have not yet been confirmed should also select this option.

2. Sacramental Preparation for Unbaptized Children: Select this option if your child has not yet been baptized, but you wish to enroll your child in sacramental preparation for Baptism, First Reconciliation, and First Holy Communion.

• Order of Christian Initiation for Adults (OCIA), Adapted for Children

  • PLEASE NOTE: This program prepares children (in Grade 2 and above) for Baptism, Confirmation, and Eucharist. Those sacraments are received together (after a full calendar year of preparation) at the 2028 Easter Vigil. Do not select this option if your child has already been baptized.

  • To select this program/option, please complete the form below. We will be in touch with you soon.

3. General Religious Education: Select the appropriate grade-level option from the list below, if your child is enrolling in our ongoing religious education program (non-sacramental). (PLEASE NOTE: These grade levels do not entail sacramental preparation. If your child is not baptized, you must select the second option above.)
