As the Quebec school system no longer includes the teaching of the Catholic faith and practices, St. John Fisher Parish, along with all the parishes in the English-speaking sector of the Archdiocese of Montreal, is offering the Faith First Program. This Program provides parents with the proper tools and opportunities to experience a growth in faith with their children. The parameters of this Program, grade one through six, will include sacramental preparation for Reconciliation, First Communion, as well as for Confirmation.

Faith First: The distribution of 2024-2025 workbooks will take place in the Faith First Office in the church hall from 10:00 a.m. to 11:00 a.m. on Sunday September 15, 2024. During that time, we will take late registrations.
Children's Liturgy
Is held on Sundays at the 9:00 AM Mass for children ages 3-7. The children remain with their parents for the beginning of Mass. The lector will invite the children to go downstairs before the first reading. They return after the Creed. For information or if you would like to help, see Kerry-Anne Boyle after the 9:00 a.m. Mass in the parish hall.
Catechesis of the Good Shepherd
We are offering CGS again this year for children from age 3 to kindergarten. However, if you are interested enrolling your child in CGS, we suggest you register him or her in Faith First. When CGS becomes available, we will contact all the parents of children registered for more details. For more information, please contact Mary Jane Casey [email protected]
