Dear PSR Families,
St. Mother Teresa of Calcutta said, “Keep the joy of loving God in your heart and share this joy
with all you meet, especially your family.” As conscientious parents, you are serious about your
children growing strong in the Catholic faith. Mary, Mother of the Church Parish School of
Religion is privileged to support you in sharing the love of God with your children.
Now that we can get back to some normalcy in the activities of our lives and children are able
to return to in‐person learning, we at Mary, Mother of the Church are looking forward to seeing
all the children return to in‐person PSR for the 2021‐2022 school year. However, we will
continue to offer a home school option for all grades except second and eighth grades.
Because second and eighth grades are sacramental years, the children in these grades benefit
attending in‐person classes for sacramental preparation.
PSR sessions:
The projected starting date for PSR is Sunday, September 12 for grades 6‐8 and Wednesday,
September 15 for grades 1‐5. Attached is a fillable pdf PSR registration form and a tentative
2021‐2022 PSR calendar.
If you have any questions, please do not hesitate to contact me.
Peace and Joy!
Cheryl Degenhart
Director of Faith Formation
The Parish School of Religion provides our parish children with a regular means to grow in faith and love. PSR sessions meet weekly from September through April.
If you would like to volunteer to teach a PSR session from September thru April, September thru December, or January thru April, or to substitute teach on an as-needed basis, please contact the Director of Religious Education.
