Parish Updates
Dear Parish Family,
Good evening.
Today is the Feast of Our Lady of Sorrows. Jesus, called His mother Mary to share in His sufferings to save the world. Now he calls each of us to do the same for the salvation of all.Every year by the middle of September we have the Mass for Catechists, orientations and beginning of Classes. This year, it is very different. Given the uncertainties and health guidelines we are going for:
1.Program: A fully online program with printed text books for each student to match the online version.
2. Provider: Sophia Institute. This Friday I will sign the contract for the license for our parish. After the contract is signed they will help set up the working structure among the Administrative, the Catechists and the Family modules
3. Number of Students: So far 191 students have signed up. It will increase considerably by the end of October.
4. When to Begin: The general guideline for all parishes is to begin later. After First Holy Communions and Confirmations, we should be ready to begin during the later part of October. Before the end of October all those who wish can re-register or newly register.
5. Tuition: Since it is online, every student will pay $100.00 for the whole year. Those who have already paid with the previous year tuition rate, it will be reimbursed in November upon request.
6. Role of Catechists: All students will be assigned a catechist to reach out and facilitate the learning process with the parents and students. Catechists and parents can reach out to Fr. Wilson and I during this learning process and we will assist you.
A humble request: Tomorrow online registration will continue and the religious education office will open for in person registration. I want all to be patient and kind because we are running the office all by volunteers and with minimum expenses. Any Catechist or volunteer who has the experience and expertise to assist in the office and registration process please help me out. Thanks a million. God will provide.Blessings and prayers. Be safe and healthy with all loved ones.

Registration Is Open - Why Not Re-Register Now?
If you have not already re-registered please, please go ahead and do so (see Instructions below). We need to have a fairly accurate head count with which to make contingency plans dependent on instructions from ADNY about how to conduct the program for the coming year. Accurate head count also helps with ordering books and materials in proper quantity. New students of families already registered with the parish please contact Deacon John at 845-227-1710 X 3, or sktfaithform@optonline.net.
For all new students please submit a copy of the child’s Baptismal Certificate. If the child is older than first grade please also provide proof of any prior faith formation at other parishes. Families new to the parish please contact the parish office to register there prior to applying for FF classes.
