The Saint Joseph Religious Education Program seeks to foster the spiritual development of our parish children. The program supplements families’ religious education by teaching the Catholic faith, preparing students to receive the Sacraments, and providing opportunities to develop a lifelong relationship with Jesus Christ. 
 

WHAT HAPPENS DURING THE MASS?
 Father Roth and Father Rozman will be explaining the Mass to the students in our Religious Education Program during this Spring semester. Perhaps you would like to know more about what happens during the Mass – why we do things, what do they mean, etc.   Vatican II calls us to “full, conscious and active” participation in the liturgy. These sessions will provide the opportunity to know more about the sacred liturgy.  Please join us, and bring your questions as well!
 
The second of these presentations, “The Liturgy of the Eucharist,” will be Monday, January 24 in the Church.  Session 1 presentation begins at 4:30 PM (will also be livestreamed) and will be repeated at Session 2, which will begin at 6:45 PM.  Each session will run no more than one hour.
 
Until further notice, such sessions whereby students are present will require adults attending to wear a mask.  Thank you in advance for your cooperation.  If you would like more information, or have a question you would like to pose during the sessions and want to submit them, please contact Mark Rebuck, the parish Coordinator for Religious Education, at cre@stjosephmech.org.
