Home-Based Catechesis Registration 2023-2024

Home-Based Catechesis Registration 2023-2024

The Christian home is the place where children receive the first proclamation of the faith, (CCC, no.1666). When you presented your child for baptism, you promised to bring that child up in the faith. Home-based catechesis denotes that a family is assuming responsibility for religious instruction and formation in the home, as is their right.

It is the expectation of the parish that parents who choose Home-based catechesis will:

• Involve their children in the life and mission of the Church through weekly celebration of the Eucharist and participation in social justice and outreach opportunities.

• Select an approved curriculum from the list provide through the Diocese of Raleigh, as set forth by the United States Conference of Catholic Bishops (USCCB).

• Attend appropriate training and formation sessions that the parish or diocese provides.

• Encourage relationships and community between their children and the parish by attending age-appropriate activities and events as sponsored by the parish.

• Register their child for Home-Based Catechesis through the parish Faith Formation registration process, to ensure accurate record keeping.


This registration is for Grades Pre-K through 12th grade.
