As a Catholic Community of parents, catechists and teachers, working together, we strive to share our faith with our children and young adults.

The values and practices we teach are rooted in the gospel of Jesus Christ. As a community of faith we recognize that what we teach cannot be confined to classrooms or parish events. Rather, our Christian faith must be supported and practiced in the day-to-day life of our families and young people.

Our religious education programs seek to support parents, guardians and families in cultivating homes and relationships grounded in the teaching of Christ and his church.

Holy Family Parish provides English-language as well as Brazilian/Portuguese Religious Education for grades 1-8 and for High School students. The classrooms for the Brazilian community are located on the ground floor of the  building at 81 Plantation Street (corner of Hamilton St. and Plantation St.). Easy access to this section of the building is from the parking lot on Chrome Street (1^st left off of Plantation). The Religious Education area is handicap accessible. The classrooms for the English language community are accross the street at 18 Hamilton Street, the former St. Stephen's church rectory. 

The Religious Education Program typically runs from the fall (September) through the spring (May). 

We welcome children from all family and cultural backgrounds to join us in living the gospel of Jesus Christ.
