Mission: The goal of Religious Education is to present the knowledge of God to our children in the hope of fostering a desire to enter into a lifelong relationship with Him. We work to teach our children that the Sacraments give us the grace to enter into the life of the Blessed Trinity, and that the Holy Mass is where the Body, Blood, Soul and Divinity of Our Lord Jesus Christ brings divine life into our souls. 

The Vision: Religious Education at Our Lady Queen of Peace is to present the knowledge of God to our children in the hope of fostering a desire to enter into a lifelong relationship with Him. We work to teach our children that the Sacraments give us the grace to enter into the life of the Blessed Trinity, and that the Holy Mass is where the Body, Blood, Soul and Divinity of Our Lord Jesus Christ brings divine life into our souls.

“Parents and those who take their place are bound by the obligation and possess the right of educating their offspring. Catholic parents also have the duty and right of choosing those means
and institutions through which they can provide more suitably for the Catholic Education of their children, according to local circumstances. (CIC, c. 793 §1)” Our Lady Queen of Peace’s Religious Education program seeks to assist your duty as parents to raise your children in the Catholic faith.
 

Prayer for a New Religious Education Year

 God our Merciful Father, we turn to You at the start of this new school year.
Open our ears to hear Your voice; open our hearts to grow in love as we listen to
Your Word. We make this prayer to You through the Holy Spirit,
in the name of Jesus Christ Our Lord.
Amen.
