Discover! Finding Faith in Life
GRADES 1–5. For school and parish. With the Catholic Children's Bible as the core text, children will be immersed in Scripture from Day 1. Each chapter is anchored to a Scripture story.

SOPHIA INSTITUTE FOR TEACHERS
A Family of Faith
GRADES K–8. A parish-based program that catechizes the entire family. This program is designed to be used by parishes as an alternative to classroom religious education programs. Parental involvement in the faith-life of their child is the most important element in ensuring that a child develops into a practicing Christian. Family of Faith was created to meet the demand among parishes who recognize that families are disengaging from the faith. Even many parents who send their children to parish religious education programs struggle to create an authentic Catholic family in the home. Provides an easy-to-use solution to catechizing the whole family and helping parents lead their children. The program follows a four-year cycle: one pillar of the Catechism is covered each year from September through May. Each year is self-contained so families may join at any time in the cycle. The program is flexible and can be tailored to meet the needs of a particular parish.

2. Two weeks later, the entire family gathers after a Sunday Mass for a short "community meeting" with activities ranging from picnics and feast day celebrations to prayer groups and adoration.
3. Over the course of the month, parents teach two lessons to their children at home using the Family of Faith parent guide and student activity books. Learn more on pages 142143

Families learn and live the Faith together
A Family of Faith provides your parish with a proven way to develop strong Catholic families who live their faith joyfully. A Family of Faith is easy to use and will help to strengthen your parish community because...
Children won’t simply learn the Faith; they’ll live it. Parents learn how to model Christian life and teach their children as Christ taught us.
The program teaches the entire Catechism over a fouryear cycle. As a result, Mass attendance increases as families deepen their commitment to the Faith. Sophia Institute staff offer personalized assistance to transition from classroom to family-based teaching.

12 ways to increase enrollment IN
YOUR FAITH FORMATION PROGRAM
Growing your enrollment is all about getting the word out. Developing a multifaceted marketing effort with signs, posters, attractive flyers, information sessions and compelling announcements before or after Mass will take some time but if you can implement just a few of the ideas presented below (and the Lord blesses the effort) you will see positive results this fall.
#1
Host information sessions
Set up two or three parent information sessions immediately after Mass or in the evening to help parents understand the benefits of enrolling their children. Distribute the schedule of classes and any other information you have about what people should expect from the program. Have one or two current students speak about how their faith as grown because of participating. If you opt for an evening session, provide childcare if possible.
#2 Make announcements
Write a heart-felt appeal that can be delivered by a parent or one of your older students before or after Mass that speaks to the benefit of faith formation and invites the younger children to participate.
#5 Make your registration form as simple as possible: Review your form periodically. If you can remove some of the hurdles to registration it stands to reason that more people will sign up.
#6 Use online registration
Create a simple online registration form that makes it easy to enroll. ComCenter has created a free tutorial that shows you how to do this yourself, and provides some nice graphics to make your form attractive. www.comcenter.com/forms/
#3 Set up an information table in highvisibility location: Create an attractive display that includes copies of the students’ work, informational materials, copies of the religion textbooks, and handouts with registration information. A tri-fold display board with photographs will encourage people to stop by. Ideally you would have parents and students staff the table and answer questions.
#4 Create compelling bulletin inserts
ComCenter has designed some graphics that you can download for free that will make your bulletin insert eye-catching. www.comcenter.com/graphics/
#7 Keep inviting students the first few weeks of classes: Use the first few classes to encourage parents and students - “There is still time for you to invite your friends to join us.” Having to order a few extra books because your class was bigger than you expected is a nice problem to have.
#8 Make observance of Catechetical Sunday (9/17/23) a big deal!
“Catechetical Sunday is a wonderful opportunity to reflect on the role that each baptized person plays in handing on the faith and being a witness to the Gospel. Catechetical Sunday is an opportunity for all to rededicate themselves to this mission as a community of faith.” – USCCB website
“Thank you for all you do to make life easier for all of us.”
#9 Include the faith formation program in the Prayer of the Faithful:
Write a petition asking the Lord to draw more young people to formation. This allows the entire parish to pray for an increase in the number of children in the faith formation program.

Have three “invitation” seasons to give parents time to think about the importance of having their children grow in the faith. Some families will register in the spring and tell their friends over the summer.
#12 Offer scholarships
If your parish charges a fee for faith formation classes, find a generous parishioner or two to fund a few scholarships. Then in your marketing materials you can say, “Please do not let inability to pay the fee stop you from participating. Contact the office if you need a scholarship.”
