OUR MISSION:

The Religious Education department exists to assist parents in their vocation as primary educators of their children by offering a program of catechesis faithful to the teachings of the Magisterium of The Catholic Church and fostering a relationship with Jesus Christ.

HOME-BASED CATECHESIS:

The Bishop of Raleigh supports those parents who wish to provide home-based catechesis for their children. Home-based catechesis denotes that a family is assuming responsibility for religious instruction and formation in the home, as is their right. However, it is important to keep in mind that homes based catechesis of children is the cooperative effort between the children, their parents, parish leadership, and the diocesan bishop.

While children in home-based catechesis are not required to attend parish programs, it is strongly suggested that they participate in parish sacramental preparation in order to share faith with their peers and grow in their understanding of the life of the parish community.

Those who wish to utilize home-based catechesis must fill out a registration form and make a note of their decision.

SAINT JOHN PAUL II SCHOOL FAMILIES: 

Sacred Heart Parish is again offering the voluntary parish subsidy program to registered Sacred Heart families whose children are enrolled at St John Paul II School.  Click on the following link to obtain a copy of the PARISH PARTICIPATION VOUCHER  which is also available  from the church office. Families wishing to participate in the program must be active registered parishioners contributing time, talent and treasure to Sacred Heart. Complete the Parish Participation voucher, return it to the office for approval and the Pastor’s signature. Then is returned to the JP II School office.
Status for this program is verified annually. Families are asked to apply before July 1 for budget reasons.
