Welcome to our 2008-2009 St.
John Vianney
Children’s, Youth and Family Faith Formation
Programs
Our Faith Formation Team works together to
provide comprehensive opportunities to meet the
needs of the St. John Vianney faith community.
We will begin processing registrations on May
19th. Over the summer recess registrations can
be turned into the parish business office. These
registrations will be dated and processed in
late August. You will receive your class
assignment in early September. You may register
for all of our various programs and levels on
the same form. Additional registration forms are
needed for the Sacraments of Baptism,
Reconciliation, Eucharist or Confirmation. You
can request these on our registration form by
checking the box indicated or on this our forms
page,

The Diocesan Health Form is also
included and must be turned in to the office
with the registration form. One health form can
be used for multiple children in the family –
just indicate which specific information belongs
to which child.
All children and teens are welcome in our Faith
Formation programs and should not be kept away
for financial reasons. The fees indicated on the
registration form are collected to ease our
expenses. If payment at this time is a hardship,
we will be happy to work it out with you.
Questions and concerns about registration should
be directed to Sue Ahlbach at the Faith
Formation office 939-9544.
