The Mission Statement of Our Lady of Perpetual Help's Religious Education program is to look upon each child as created in the image and likeness of God and as a reflection of His goodness. Realizing that God has created all things for His glory and our benefit, the challenge of being a living witness to the Gospel should be central to the development of each student. Therefore, at Our Lady of Perpetual Help, understanding Jesus and His message is essential to knowing Him, loving Him and serving Him always as we Go and Teach!

Hello brothers and sisters in Christ,
As the DRE of this parish, my goal is to provide training and leadership to our very talented and dedicated group of catechist who's goal is to Pass on the Catholic Faith. Catechists are called to serve through teaching, witness, prayer, service, and building community. Catechists minister to adults, youth and children in a variety of locations and programs: parish faith formation and religious educations, youth ministry programs sacramental preparation, RCIA, family programs, scripture studies and adult faith formation offerings. Catechists teach the Catholic faith and proclaim the Gospel of Jesus Christ through word and example. Feel free to contact me at any time with your needs or with any questions. I am here to serve you.
