Religious Education

The goal of the Religious Education Program is to educate the youth of St. Matthew's Parish about the Catholic faith and prepare them to complete the Sacraments of Initiation to be full members of the Church and disciples of Christ.


CCD is a meaningful way to support spiritual growth and development within the Catholic faith. CCD programs offer a structured environment where children can learn about the core tenets of Catholicism, including the teachings of Jesus Christ, the Sacraments, the Holy Trinity, and the lives of saints. Beyond foundational knowledge, CCD provides a community where children can connect with their peers who share similar beliefs, fostering a sense of belonging and shared faith. 



Please see the bulletin or St. Matthew's CCD Facebook Page for updates. Any additional questions can be directed towards our religious Coordinators, Lisa Hoey and Kathy Coyle.
