The mission of St. Maximilian Kolbe’s Youth Faith Formation program is to bring the “Good News” of God’s love to all children and their families and to call them to commit their lives to Christ. Faith Formation classes are available for Preschool children through High School Youth Confirmation.
Grades K through 11 will receive systematic catechesis, based on the framework implemented by the Archdiocese of Galveston-Houston.

Faith Formation Classes (or Catholic School Religion Classes) are required to be eligible for Sacrament Preparation. Sacrament Preparation has separate registration and meeting times.
