Faith Formation

2026/2027

registration is now

open!

This year parents (K-8) have the opportunity to register their children in either the Mantua program or the Aurora program. You will see the option on the registration form, which is available for download to the left.

ALL Confirmation preparation will be done in Aurora on Sunday afternoons with Deacon Matt Richards. If you have a child entering 6-8th grade we encourage you to look at Aurora's Edge program which meets on Monday evenings from 5:45-7pm. This program is part catechesis and part ministry and allows the students to have fun, go deeper into their faith, share their understanding with their grade-level small group, and leave with a mission: to live the Catholic Faith that week in a new way. 

Many of the students transition to the LIFETEEN program after 8th grade, which is open to ALL high schoolers in the Portage North region.
