The Catechesis of the Good Shepherd (CGS) is a Montessori-based approach to the religious formation of children, rooted in Sacred Scripture, Liturgy and respect for the child’s rich relationship with God.
 
This relationship is nurtured in a prepared environment called an Atrium, specifically designed for children to engage in hands-on experiences at the appropriate developmental level. It is a place where a child is free to wonder about the mysteries of God and joyfully love Him through prayer, holy work, song and art expression.

We are pleased to offer Catechesis of the Good Shepherd for children 3-5 years old. Children should be able to toilet independently and be comfortable in the Atrium without a caregiver present.  Please contact [email protected] for more information. You may register here.

Please pray for this new ministry and for the parish children and families it serves.
