Family formation (K - 6th Grade)Welcome to the Community of St. Mary and St. Ann Faith Formation and Youth Ministry opportunities for both you and your children. It is a great pleasure to journey with you this year as we pray and learn together how to be disciples of Jesus. Maybe you never thought of yourself as a disciple before. I encourage you to really take this notion to heart. The word disciple comes from the Latin word “discipulus” which means student. Hopefully you recognize we are all life-long students of Christ, continually growing in our relationship with Him and deepening our understanding of living out our Catholic faith. The other word that comes out of disciple is discipline or the Latin word “disciplina” which means instruction or training. Practicing our Catholic faith does take discipline and being intentional in living out our Catholic Faith. It is my hope that the opportunities we offer help you and your family be the disciples God calls you to be. Please call the parish office at 517-543-4319 for more information.
As we return to our various programs we of course like everyone else strive to keep everyone healthy and safe. We will follow the guidelines of the Diocese of Lansing as well as the Health Department to ensure we are doing all that is possible and reasonable to keep people safe. For more detailed guidelines go to dioceseoflansing.org under “ministries” and “parish religious education.”
