Attention 8th Grade Students and Parents
Confirmation Prep Sessions

Confirmation for students of St. Benedict parish takes place in the fall of 9th Grade. All 8th grade students are required to attend Preparation Sessions for Confirmation: June 9 – 13 from 9:00 a.m. until 1:00 p.m. On Monday through Thursday, students will need to bring a bagged lunch. On Friday, we will provide lunch. Please call Colette or Cathy in the Religious Ed office at 724.942.1050.

Reminder for Parents

Please make every effort to bring your children to Religious Ed classes on time. Keep in mind that it is difficult for catechists to cover all the material in the weekly lesson when they lose precious time waiting for students to arrive. Likewise, early dismissal should be avoided. This is important time to share our faith with those who are the future of our Church. Your cooperation in following the schedule helps us. Thank you.
