The purpose of the CCD program remains consistent: to deliver inspiration and education to our young people to help them find the meaning of Jesus in their lives and to live as lifelong intentional Disciples of Christ to bring His love to the world. That's what "Good Catholics" do and, at Most Holy Redeemer, we have a lot of those! As a parent or guardian, you know that the religious education of a child starts and continues primarily at home! PREP is here to support and expand that experience.

Our school is located next to Desmond Hall and the Church. The school is for children in the kindergarten through 8th grades. In the program, our young Baptized people receive catechesis including the rest of the "Sacraments of Initiation," this means: First Holy Communion, the Sacrament of Reconciliation ("Confession"), and Confirmation. Typically, children receive their First Confession and Holy Communion in the 2nd Grade and their Confirmation in the 8th Grade.

If you have a child and want to inquire about CCD, you should call the Parish Religious Education Office directly at 732-566-5630 or email our Parish Catechetical Leader, Ms. Debbie Dyson at mhrccd@yahoo.com. You will receive a warm welcome and whatever help or advice you may need to care for the religious education of your child.
