Children's Religious Education

The Christian home is the central locus for catechesis in the faith. For this reason the family home is rightly called "the domestic church," a community of grace and prayer, a school of human virtues and of Christian charity.
-Catechism of the Catholic Church 1666

CCD is for parish children, grades K-8, who are not enrolled in Catholic school. Sessions are held on Sunday mornings at St. Jude Parish School from11:15am to 12:30pm.
