Our Mission
Family is our first community and the place where we begin to understand life and faith. Parents play a central role in passing on the faith, and the Church partners with families to support this important mission. Our Catechism program helps children grow in their relationship with God by teaching Christian doctrine, the power of prayer, God's love and forgiveness, and how to live a joyful, hope-filled Christian life.
About Our Program
Our Catechism program follows a Rotational Blended Learning Model, consisting of alternating weeks of in‑person sessions at Our Lady of Pompei Church and online sessions via Zoom. The program runs from the first Sunday of October until the last Sunday of April.
Sunday Mass Attendance
Sunday Mass is at the heart of our faith and an important part of our Catechism journey. We warmly invite all families to attend the Catechism Mass every Sunday at 11:15 a.m. at Our Lady of Pompei Church.
