Parish Religious Education Program
PREP Update
Registration for 2022-23 PREP has not yet begun. We are currently actively recruiting volunteers for the positions of Catechists, Classroom Aides, Hall Monitors, and Parking Lot Monitors. It is hoped that all grades will return to in-person classes; however, that will only be possible if we have a sufficient number of Catechists and volunteers. If you are able, please consider volunteering for one of these positions. (See more information about volunteering below.)
It is anticipated that registration for 2022-23 PREP will begin sometime during August 2022. At this time, sessions are planned for Tuesday and Wednesday afternoons from 4:30 to 5:30 PM, Grades 1-8, and Tuesday evenings from 6:30 to 7:30 PM, Grades 6-8. The opening of registration will be announced in the Parish Bulletin as well as on the Parish Website as soon as plans for the 2022-23 sessions are finalized.
For any questions or additional information, please contact the PREP office directly at (914) 961-1076 or via email at prep@icaparish.org.
PREP Office hours in the summer vary, but, if you leave a message with your name and a contact number, someone from the PREP staff will return your call as soon as possible.

About PREP
ICA’s Parish Religious Education Program (PREP) is an 8-year program intended to assist parents in fulfilling their obligation in the formation of their children in the Catholic faith. All families are expected to regularly attend Mass on Sundays and on Holy Days of Obligation. The program is available to public school children of families registered at ICA Parish.
The PREP Office can be reached at prep@icaparish.org or (914) 961-1076.
PREP Needs Your Assistance
Prayerfully Consider Sharing Your Faith
Jesus invites all of us to spread His Gospel to the entire world, why not start right here in Tuckahoe and Eastchester?
There is no higher calling than to spread the Catholic faith to the younger generation. The Immaculate Conception‐Assumption of Our Lady Parish Religious Education Program (PREP) needs catechists, classroom aides, and hall and parking lot monitors for the 2022–2023 school year. This call goes out to all adults, college students, and mature high school students. We particularly encourage those parents who have children enrolled in PREP to participate in any role in which you feel comfortable. The Lord calls all of us to serve Him in this vital ministry of the Church.
For PREP to meet its obligation to teach each child in the Parish, we need at least 35 catechists and a sufficient number of classroom aides and hall and parking lot monitors. Catechists are needed for each grade level from 1st to 8th Grade.

TUESDAY
4:30 ‐ 5:30 PM | Grades 1‐8
6:30 ‐ 7:30 PM | Grades 6 ‐ 8

Please let Deacon Frank know of your willingness to serve by emailing him - DRE@icaparish.org - or by calling the PREP Office - (914) 961‐1076.
No prior teaching experience is necessary. We will train you, provide all your materials, and will “walk with you” every step of the way.
