On August 1, 2022, St. Michael R.C. Church, Mary Immaculate Parish Community and St. Isidore Parish Community became part of a "Family of Parishes," forming the Eastern Rural Roman Catholic Community.  As part of the initiative of becoming a Family of Parishes, the Faith Formation programs have become one in order to help provide the strongest possible program for our students and their families.

Throughout the calendar year for 2023 - 2024 there will be select dates when the whole family will be invited to attend a session along with the registered students.

Those children/students preparing for a sacrament should meet the criteria listed and will be asked to attend additional sessions outside of the regular classroom sessions that are scheduled.

​The sacraments lead us to real encounters with God.  They serve as milestones in our faith journey, and hopefully deepen our appreciation for our faith.  While some of the sacraments have traditionally been received based on "school grade level" in the past, we here in our community have made adjustments to this, to ensure that those who receive the sacraments understand what they are participating in.  Below is a link for the "Sacramental Qualifiers" for the Sacrament of First Reconciliation, Sacrament of First Eucharist, and the Sacrament of Confirmation.
