Registration for 2020-2021 
is open!

NEW for 20-21: ALL 7th grade students will enroll in Rise, there is no longer an RE option for 7th grade students.                          

Who: Grades 7-12. Rise is for 7th and 8th graders and Encounter covers Confirmation I and Confirmation II. Camino is for our Post-Confirmation teens.

 If you have a 6th-grade student, they're able to attend Rise in addition to their R.E. class. Please see below for information about each program. 

Cost: $85 per child for Rise and Encounter. There is a $30 Sacramental fee for Confirmation 2. $25 per child for Camino. This is separate from fees for other faith formation groups (i.e. RE) Late registration will cost an additional $15 per child.

• We will not be able to guarantee your child stays with the same small group if you sign them up during late registration. We have had numerous feedback from our students that they enjoy staying in the same small group year to year. We want to keep it that way but often can't make it happen if you don't register them on time.

Two Part Registration Process

Step 1: Register your child online by clicking the link below that says student registration. Fill out the form completely and add as many students as you have in grades 7-12. (6th Grade Rise registration is at the bottom of the page).

Step 2: For returning students, all paperwork from the previous year is due. For new students 8th grade and above, we just need a copy of your child's baptismal certificate. Questions on this? Check out the FAQ

            

Camino is a program of Christ the Redeemer Youth Ministry for high school students who have already been confirmed  (9-12th Grade) and are ready to go deeper. Camino consists of small groups who meet weekly to pray, share, study and go deeper in their faith. All the Camino groups will come together once a month to pray, share, and for fellowship. They meet as a small group at a time and day that works for them. We have small groups that meet at different times Sunday-Thursday. Groups do a variety of different things depending on the small group.

All students in Confirmation I or Confirmation II will attend Encounter which takes place from 6:45 - 8:30 p.m. on Sundays. They will also be split into small groups by grade, school and biological sex. 

We are not allowed to offer Home-based Catechesis for Confirmation I or II as per diocesan policies. All preparation must be done by the parish. Exceptions to this rule are only offered to Confirmation I students who, if attending a Catholic school, are excused from class time but must attend a retreat and are encouraged to attend classes to stay connected with the community. 

All students in 7th and  8th-grade attending faith formation at CtR will be attending Rise, which takes place from 7-8:30 p.m. on Wednesdays. They will be all together in a large group and split into smaller groups each week.  There is also a Home-based Catechesis option. All 6th-grade students may attend Rise in addition to their Religious Education class.
