Our Mission is to accompany families as they form their children and young people in our Catholic faith.
"The definitive aim of Catechesis is to put people not only in touch, but in communion, in intimacy with Jesus Christ, only he can lead us to the love of the Father, in the spirit, and make us share in the divine life of the Holy Trinity” St. Pope John Paul II (Catechesi Tradendae 5)
