Parish School of Religion (PSR)

Program Information
The Parish School of Religion is a religious education program from Grades 1-8 which is offered to our parish children who are students who attend public school.  The aim of the program is to familiarize the students with the basic knowledge and beliefs of their catholic faith and instill catholic values in each student.   It also prepares students for the sacraments of Reconciliation, Eucharist and Confirmation.

PSR classes begin the first Wednesday of September and end the last Wednesday of April.  Classes are from 6:30 p.m. to 7:45 p.m. each Wednesday.   The annual fee for PSR is $55.00 per student per year unless other financial arrangements have been made by the Pastor and PSR Coordinator.

There is a two year preparation program for the Sacraments of Reconciliation, Eucharist and Confirmation- Grade 1 & 2 and Grade 7 & 8.

Registration for classes for the year take place the weekends of August after all of the Masses.  This is for registration of new students only.

All students are required to attend all classes unless they are sick or for other extraordinary reasons.  Sports, gymnastics, etc. are not considered extraordinary reasons.  They are also required to come to one of the Masses on all weekends preferably with their family.

Contact Sr. Marilyn Chall, O.S.F. - PSR Coordinator  at 636-239-3520 or 636-239-2164 with any questions or comments about the PSR program.
