Religious Education

Welcome to St. Laurence Parish Religious Education Website! You will find information regarding our ministry. Our mission is to support our families as they guide their children in the Catholic faith.

We have many volunteers who make this program possible. It is our hope that we might bring children and youth to understand how God is present in our everyday lives.

Parish families are invited and encouraged to enroll their children. All parents whose children attend public school should enroll their children in our Religious Education program.
