Jesus said, “Let the little children come to me, and do not hinder them, for the kingdom of heaven belongs to such as these.” - Matthew 19:14

The mission of the Our Lady of Lourdes Religious Education Program is to partner with parents in strengthening the Domestic Church by providing God's children with meaningful experiences that engage them and lead them to encounters with Jesus Christ. Through faithful Catholic teaching, prayer, the Sacraments, service, and the witness of our parish community, we strive to help every child know, love, and follow Christ, nurturing a lifelong relationship with Him that is lived each day at home, in our parish, and in the world.

The Religious Education office is located in Room 21 in the School Building.  When class is not in session, please use the outdoor entrance on Linden Street.
