The Cathedral of Saint Patrick's Faith Formation for Children program is open to all registered children of the Cathedral from kindergarten through eigth grade. Classes are held Sunday mornings from September through May.

The registration fees are below.  The fee is waived for catechists and assistants who volunteer with the Faith Formation program, and for anyone who expresses financial hardships and has discussed this need with the parish office. 

For more information about registering for our programs, please reach out to Mr. James Sarkis.

1 child in family $70.00
2 children in family $85.00
