2009-10 Schedule
Forms for Christmas Program

Five Parish Nights Sun 3:00, meal follows, Mon. 5:30 meal begins, Wed. 6:00 meal begins. Meals are an important part of GOF. It helps us build community in our large parish. We do not charge for the meals and encourage and invite everyone to come and eat. This year our theme is Life in Christ: Walk in The Way. Our Parish nights are opportunities to come and share faith and learn more about our rich Catholic traditions. Parish Night format includes an opening prayer and short activity with everyone together. Then there is a break-off session by ages: adults staying with Father Tom while children are doing age-specific activities. Next we regather for family time, and end with all ages together for a short ending prayer.

3 Expanding Horizons Fall, Winter, Spring Interactive stations…also called learning centers. These are hands-on centers for three levels of learning: Adults (can be 10th graders on up,) Youth (grades 5-10,) and Child (Kindergarten-4th grade.) K-4th is parent and child together and Youth is highly suggested to do as parent/child. Times: 9:00 am-9:00 p.m. over two weekends. Come the day/time that is most convenient for you. A video room is available for the children if adults wish to do both adult and youth/child centers. The parent and child centers take about an hour to do. There are also grade-specific learning centers during the year. Check the schedule to see when your grade is scheduled.

KIDS FOR CHRIST( KFC) The adults will have Going Deeper but, for grades 1-5, we are calling our nights KFC. These Wednesday evenings, from 6:00-7:00 will be a combination of community building, a large group teaching, a fun activity (craft, video, games,) the annual Christmas program and a snow tubing field trip. Permission slips are available for the Christmas program. There is no need to pre-register for KFC, just drop in. The Christmas Musical/program will include acting/reading parts for grades 4,5, 6 and older and group singing. Practices will be three Wednesdays in a row. Grades 1,2,3 will sing for the program.
