As part of our strategic plan to live our mission of offering life-changing encounters with Jesus and equipping leaders to transform the culture, our Catechesis of the Good Shepherd (CGS) is a hands-on and Montessori-based approach to faith formation. It is designed to deepen the child’s existing relationship with God, encourage formation of a personal prayer life, enable fuller participation in liturgical and sacramental life of the Church, and develop a deeper understanding of Catholic identity and tradition.
