- Scholarship and Special Payment Options – WE NEVER WANT A CHILD TO MISS THE OPPORTUNITY TO GROW IN THEIR KNOWLEDGE AND LOVE FOR OUR LORD AND THE CHURCH BECAUSE OF AN INABILITY TO PAY. A scholarship is available for those who are unable to pay the full tuition. It is very important to us that everyone is aware no one is denied catechesis because of an inability to pay. Scholarships will be available to those who are in need of help to cover the cost of tuition. Please contact, James Blankenship, at 540-338-4497 to make arrangements that best serve your family.
- Sacramental Preparation Fees – Fees cover costs for additional materials, retreats, and expenses incurred for the celebration of the sacraments. By charging this fee we are able to keep down our overall tuition. You can pay the fees at registration or wait. Please see the costs and deadline for payment below. These fees can also be paid online on Parish Giving.
Confirmation $55 1st Eucharist $30
- Volunteers Needed: We are also in need of catechists, aides, substitutes and other volunteers. If you want to help in some way, please return the enclosed form. Those who volunteer will get first priority of classes and discounted registration fee.
