Family Catechesis Online Learning

Family Catechesis (Fam Cat) online learning is designed for families who are unable to attend in-person sessions on Sunday mornings.  Below you will find the format and schedule for online learning for the 2022-2023 catechetical year.

• ​Watch the monthly online video, which will be available on the 1st of each month.
• Complete the activities with their child(ren) using the Parent’s Guide and their child(ren)’s Activity Book.
• Engage in a monthly conversation with their Formation Companion.

• For families who choose online learning, a minimum of one parent/guardian is required to participate. Depending on your family situation, one or both parents may want to participate.  Both parents are certainly welcome and encouraged to do so!  However, each parent who participates must meet the expectations above.  Due to the critical consistency of conversations that take place with the “Formation Companion,” parents may not alternate each month.
• Families may not switch back and forth from in-person Family Catechesis to online Family Catechesis.
• There are no Zoom meetings or Franciscan At Home workshops.
• Online learning families are not required to submit Interactive Chapter Review results or turn in anything else.
• You may obtain your child(ren)’s Activity Book and a Parent’s Guide at the AGP Administrative Office (5718 Steubenville Pike, McKees Rocks 15136) between 8:30 AM and 4:30 PM, Monday through Friday, beginning October 3, 2022.
