    CATHOLIC SCHOOL

    All Catholic school teens must register!

    If your son/daughter is attending an accredited Catholic school they do not have to attend Life Teen Genesis on Sunday evenings. However, they still must attend:  

    Kickoff Retreat on November 6, 2021 from 10:00 am – 4:00 pm

    in order to receive credit for the first year of Confirmation preparation.

    Your teen attending Catholic school is welcome to attend Life Teen Genesis on Sunday evenings. This can be fruitful for helping them to integrate into our parish community who they will be journeying with in the second year. In that event, please pay the $80 registration fee which will cover the cost of materials, books, and Sunday dinners throughout the year. 

    If your Catholic school teen will not attend on Sunday Nights, please select Option 2, and a $40 fee will be required for the cost of your books which will be used for year 1 and year 2.


    REGISTRATION

      Online registration is only available for those paying electronically. To pay by check/cash/payment plan, you'll need to do Paper Registration.

      Please register online if you are able. Most people have not had problems registering on Faith Direct. Some have tried registering on a laptop from their work and were not able to complete registration (perhaps because of a security or firewall setting).

      If you need, Paper Registration Forms are available in English and Spanish at the Faith Formation Office at 3702 Woodland Hills Dr. Office hours are M-F 9-4.

      If you need more help or would like to discuss a payment plan, email mikel@stmartha.com
