Parish Religion Program
Registration for our Parish Religion Program is now open. There are three options: Online PRP, Sunday PRP, and Summer PRP. Details about each can be found here. Children are required to have 2 years of religious education to receive a Sacrament. Preparation for Confirmation requires an additional component from our standard religious education programs during the Sacramental year. The St. Margaret of York Catholic Church Parish Religion Program assists the parents (the primary catechists) in the faith formation of their children to know, love, and serve Jesus. Questions about our PRP programs or for help deciding which program is right for your children and family please contact our Coordinator of Religious Education, Melissa Capella.
