Faith Formation Registration

Our Sunday program welcomes children ages three through five to gather together in a classroom setting during the 10:00am Sunday Mass.  Children will learn about their Catholic faith through lessons featuring Bible stories, music, crafts, prayer, games, and more.

Classes are held in the St. Margaret Preschool building located next to the church on the main campus. Catechists are trained and are VIRTUS certified through the Archdiocese of Baltimore. Children must be completely potty trained to be able to attend.

Registration is required; see the links for the Calendar information. Sessions begin in October 2026 and end in March 2027.

Grades 1-8  [Families choose Tuesday OR Wednesday as their preferred evening to attend throughout the year.]

• Incoming seventh and eighth grade students will attend Faith Formation classes/family sessions from September through December.
• Confirmation Prep for the seventh AND eighth grade students will begin in January of 2027, with Confirmation celebrated in May of 2027.

St. Margaret Parish offers Family Catechesis as the Primary Model.  Family Catechesis blends gathered experiences, in-person classes with trained catechists, parent sessions and online resources.  Themes drawn from the Creed, sacraments, morality, justice and service, prayer, and spiritual life are used as guides for catechesis.

• Children attend in-person classes two or three times a month with a trained catechist at St. Margaret Middle School.
• Family sessions (parents and children) are held once a month.
• Parent only sessions will be held four times throughout the year while their children are in the classroom.

Registration is required; see the links for the Calendar information. Sessions begin in September 2026 and end in March 2027.
