Program Description
Kingdom Kids uses “Allelu!” by Our Sunday Visitor for preschool-kindergarten and “Finding God: Our Response to God’s Gifts” for 1st-5th grade. Both curricula integrate fundamental themes of the Catechism of the Catholic Church with Scripture and Catholic Social Teaching. As children are introduced to, and revisit concepts and vocabulary from one year to the next, their knowledge and experience both broaden and deepen as they grow in faith as committed disciples of Jesus. Our time together includes hands on learning through activities such as art projects, music, church tours, and more. Students in Second Grade who enroll in Kingdom Kids typically prepare for First Penance & Reconciliation and First Eucharist as well.

A note about First Penance & Reconciliation and First Eucharist Preparation
Students in Second Grade who enroll in Kingdom Kids typically prepare for First Penance & Reconciliation and First Eucharist. Asside from participating in Kingdom Kids on a weekly basis there will be a few added opportunities: two child and parent retreats/workshops, a special Penance and Reconciliation Service, and a First Eucharist Practice. For more information about these first sacraments visit our Sacramental Preparation Web Page.

Beyond the Classroom
Resources and games for families which can enhance what children are learning here at Church in Kingdom Kids can be found on Loyola Press' Web Page. We highly encourage families to use resources like this at home in order to further develop your child's/children's relationship(s) with Jesus Christ and his Church.
