Your child’s formation in the faith is the most important gift you will ever give your child. Thank you for making your child’s faith formation a priority in the life of your family. St. Thomas & St. Timothy Faith formation program is excited to partner with parents and guardians to help fulfill their promise at their child’s Baptism to educate and nurture their child’s faith.
Faith Formation registration is open August 1 through August 31, 2026. Classes are not available for selection prior to August 1.
Space is limited as we rely on volunteers to teach classes. After August 31, children will only be admitted provided there is space available. Please make every effort to register during the open window. This is a large program to coordinate, and classes need to be set and materials organized. Are your neighbors or friends away from the parish now or during August? Help spread the word! Mrs. Burnett and Deacon Paul are also sending out email messages to families based on 25-26 registrations.
Please read a few notes about completing the registration form:
- If you are registering more than one child, you will see the option “Register for another class” after completing the first registration. Family information will pre-fill for the next child.
- You will be asked if you give permission for your child(ren) to be in photos, and then if you give consent for those photos to be used in printed or digital media. We use photos of children on the bulletin and on the website, but never in outside of parish media and never include names. Please be aware that if you do not give permission, then your child will be excluded from photo collages in the bulletin.
- For sacrament dates, if you do not know the exact date, please estimate as close as you can to month and year.
- For 8th and 9th grade students, the Confirmation retreat is October 18 from 1:45pm to 6:00pm (dinner included) at Holy Family Retreat Center, West Hartford. If your student is not available to attend on that date, please contact Deacon Paul to make other arrangements.
- In the registration completion page, and after you have included all children, follow the link to pay the registration fee. This will take you to the OSV Online giving portal. You can proceed as a guest, but you will be prompted to sign-in if the email you provide matches an email registered for online giving. The page includes the fee calculation. It is $75.00 per student, with a family maximum amount of $190.00. If you are a catechist in the program, you may deduct the cost of one student.
- Lastly, help us spread the word to register for classes in August.
