At St. John Vianney, we believe the family is the “domestic church” (Lumen Gentium #11). It is within the context of the family that children first learn and encounter who God is. Respecting the sacredness and importance of the family, our program works to support parents as the primary educators of their children. 

We offer monthly sessions where elementary-aged children and their families come to learn, share and grow in their faith together. We believe parents and children learn about God from one another and our hope is to create meaningful faith-filled conversations and experiences for our families. We will have once-a-month in-person opportunities to gather for a social, service, or prayer experience. We will also send activities home for the family to do together.
