2018-2019 Registration Information
New Families
Welcome! Thank you for your interest in St. Joseph’s Religious Education Program. It is a privilege to nurture spiritual and faith formation. Religious education is a very serious
commitment—children participate in our program from first grade through eighth grade. We also offer a pre-school class if you’d like to get started early and you think your child is ready for it. By attending for eight or even nine years, the children learn Catholic habits and make lasting friendships with like-minded youth. To enroll, please call the Religious Education office at 708-798-6311.

"My child attends the Religious Education on Sundays and has been learning so much through the program. Last week, she drew pictures of the Christmas Story and shared
them with our family. The teachers are also very caring and approachable. They really care about the children."Anne J.

2018 MLK Day of Service
Thanks to you we had a very successful drive for the South Suburban Family Shelter on Martin Luther King Day. Ten children and two catechists helped to collect donations and take inventory. We collected almost 300 food items, 80 articles of clothing, a $15 target gift card and a check for $40.00. A huge thank you to everyone who braved the weather, especially the families of the children who volunteered their time: Charlie and David Anderson, Alex Bertucci, Morgan Davenport, Pat Donahue, Joey Boldt, Kira Chivers, Grace Opyd, Stephanie Rose, and Charlie Van Etten; and the two catechists who helped to supervise, Mrs. Banks and Mrs. Davenport.
When asked to reflect on the significance of this service activity, one student responded “it shows that people care” another student said “I feel better now that I’ve helped other people.” Jim Bova, a volunteer at SSFS, thanked the students and St. Joseph Parish before all the children loaded the donations into his car.
Thank you again for making MLK Day productive for everyone!
