Middle School 2020-2021 Faith Formation Program - Tuesday
Holy Trinity Parish
227 Sea Street
Quincy, MA 02169
Goal of the Middle School Faith Formation Program
To recognize each child as a gift from God and to let her or him grow in the Catholic faith through an awareness of God’s presence in their lives as important members of the Holy Trinity Parish community. To achieve this goal, our faith formation classes include catechesis using Pflaum Gospel Weeklies with small group discussions on how the Gospel is applicable to life in the contemporary age through a sharing of personal stories and experiences. The curriculum includes studying the saints as role models for our youth, time for prayer, religious practice, and learning activities to grow in faith, knowledge, and fellowship.

In light of the ongoing pandemic, Holy Trinity Parish will adopt an online model of learning for the Middle School program during the 2020-2021 school year. Classes will meet online two times a month on Tuesdays at 6:30 PM. In addition, regularly attending Sunday Mass and receiving the Eucharist is an important part of faith formation and the practice of the faith. All Sundays are obligatory for the faithful to participate in the Mass. The weekend schedule of Masses at Holy Trinity Parish is as follows:
Most Blessed Sacrament Church: Saturday 4:30 PM and Sunday 8:30 AM
Our Lady of Good Counsel Church: Saturday 6:00 PM and Sunday 10:30 AM
All Masses are live streamed and recordings stored at the HTP Facebook page https://www.facebook.com/holytrinityquincy/)
