Dear Parishioners:

In order to create small classes for the ’20 – ’21 Religious Education (RE) school year, we need to know our enrollment, and so are asking parents to (Re)Register their children as soon as possible. 

All classes (grades 1 through 8 ) will continue to be held after school on Tuesday afternoons. (In order for children to receive First Holy Communion at the end of 2nd grade, they must attend 1st and 2nd grade RE. If you know of someone who is new to the parish and/or has a child entering 1st grade this fall, please pass this information along to them). 

You can register your child/children by filling out the form at https://www.stpatrickssi.org/informationampregistration-1 and mailing it with the required fees (and if your child is new, a copy of the child’s baptism certificate) to the RE office. Or you can come in this week, Wed-Fri, July 8 - 10 between 9:30 - 2 pm and (re)register in person.

See website for more info, email us at religioused@stpatrickssi.org with your phone number, or call 718-979-1272. 

We are also still looking for additional catechists to teach in the program. Experience preferred but not necessarily required. Please be in touch with us at your earliest convenience if you or someone you know is interested.

Sending children to St. Patrick’s RE every year helps secure them a solid, joyful foundation in the faith and helps qualify them to receive their sacraments on time with their peers. 

Sincerely,

Maria Giura, RE Coordinator
