Welcome

St. Francis Borgia Religious Education Program aims to create a climate for faith development by providing a stimulating and supportive atmosphere in which a child is free to grow as a disciple of Jesus Christ. We believe in the power and relevance of Catholic religious education. Our Religious Education Program should lead our families to worship and prayer, participate in community-building efforts, and motivate our children to Catholic Christian living and service among the future adult Church.

Classes meet on Tuesday from 6:30-8pm and Sunday from 9:15-10:15 with 1030 mass to follow right after.
