Family Formation is a family-based catechetical program that helps families grow in the transforming love of God by understanding and living the Catholic Faith.

Family Formation’s catechesis model combines monthly Classroom Lessons with weekly Home Lessons.

Classroom Lessons: During a monthly church gathering, children meet in grade-specific class settings while parents gather for adult catechesis.

Home Lessons: Parents, equipped with materials and an understanding of the weekly lessons, teach their children the Faith. 

This model enables parents to be “the primary educators in the Faith.” [General Directory for Catechesis (GDC) 255]
