Mission Statement:

As a part of Our Lady of the Lake Community, the children's catechesis program is designed to help all children learn and understand the Gospel message as proclaimed and taught by the Catholic Church. This enables children to celebrate the message within the community, and to translate that message into service.

Teaching the Young
