Religious Education for Children Pre-School age through Grade 7St. Thomas the Apostle Parish is proud to offer educational options for our families; finding the best "fit" for their religious education. Options that we offer are as follows:
-Our traditional Religious Education Program meets weekly on Wednesdays at 4:30-5:45 pm. Students are in classrooms by grade and their teachers are volunteers (known as CCD classes).
-We offer a Family Faith Formation option that meets twice per month on Wednesday Evenings from 6:00-7:50pm. Dinner for the family is included with this option. After dinner, students go to their grade-level class. Parents meet for discussion time led by our priests while students are at class.
-The third option is a Home Study option. Students complete online grade-level studies online with the guidance of their parent, grandparent, or other adult. Progress is monitored via the Religious Education Office.
If you have questions about registration or special needs, please don't hesitate to contact us at 815-455-5400, ext. 415.

We are donating a roof!!!!!Our Lenten project was for the Religious Ed, Faith Formation, and Home Study programs at St. Thomas to purchase a roof
for a house in Haiti, via the Hope for Haitians Project.
A roof on a Haitian home costs about $1000 - a lofty goal!
We did it! Our total collected from the RE families was $1284.33. God bless our families - and the families who will receive this generous gift. Together, we can do great things! -
