Preparing for a New Chapter of Catechesis of the Good Shepherd at Holy Infant

Beginning in the Fall of 2027, Holy Infant will offer Level II Catechesis of the Good Shepherd, expanding our ministry to serve children in grades 1 – 3. This is an exciting milestone for our parish and a testament to our commitment to nurturing the spiritual lives of our youngest members. To prepare for this next step, two of our catechists completed more than 100 hours of Level II formation between July 2025 & July 2026. Additionally, we have four catechists who are beginning 90 hours of Level I training this summer and fall, so that we continue to sustain and grow CGS at Holy Infant in the years to come.  

Over the coming year, we will be working diligently to build the Level II Atrium, carefully preparing the beautiful materials that invite children into a deeper relationship with God through Scripture and the liturgy. Many of these materials are handmade, and we would love your help bringing this vision to life! 

If you enjoy any of the following, we invite you to share your talents: 

• Painting 
• Sculpting 
• Woodworking 
• Coloring 
• Calligraphy 
• Other artistic or creative skills 

Whether you can help with one project or several, your gifts can become part of a sacred space that will serve the children of our parish for many years to come. 

If you would like to volunteer or learn more about helping build our Level II Atrium, please contact Michalene in the parish office. If you wish to make a gift in kind, please use the link below to purchase a material for our atrium. 

Thank you for helping us create a beautiful place where our children can continue to encounter the Christ the Good Shepherd.
