The St. Michael program of religious education prepares children and youth to receive the Sacraments, primarily the Sacrament of Reconciliation, Holy Eucharist, and Confirmation. It also instructs children and youth in the teachings of the church so that they may grow in faith and defend the gospel of our Lord Jesus Christ.
Adult volunteers and AU student ministry teams work with children and youth in all of our programs. All volunteers undergo training and background checks in order to participate in ministry, for the welfare and protection of our students.
In addition to religious education and Sacramental prepartion, we offer a weekly Children's Liturgy of the Word on Sundays during the 10:30 Mass (when classes are in session). Other annual events are youth service projects, receptions following services for First Communion and Confirmation, Christmas and Easter celebrations, and a week-long summer scripture and catechesis program called Catholic Kids Camp.
