Parish Religious Education Preschool-9th Grade

Sacred Heart of Mary is a place for you and your family to grow in your Catholic Faith. One of the ways you can do that is through our Parish Religious Education Classes. We offer classes for kids from Pre-K to Adult. Check out our Faith Formation page for more information on adult education.

Classes for Pre-K to 8th grade, First Communion, and Confirmation Year 1 begin Sunday, September 8th at 11:00 am in the classrooms of our Parish Center. See the High School Programs tab for more information regarding Confirmation Year 2 program.

First Communion:
– First Communion Year I starts in the first grade. Students must complete FC I with decent attendance and knowledge of prayers before beginning First Communion Year II.

– First Communion Year II begins in the second grade and only after a child completes FC I

How to Sign Up: Attend one of our Registration Days, grab a registration packet in the back of the Church, email celmore@shmbarling.org, or sign up the day classes begin. Registration fee is $20.

If you have any questions please feel free to contact Constance Elmore at celmore@shmbarling.org!
