St. Matthew Cathedral Religious Education '23-'24

Welcome to our online registration for the Religious Education program at St. Matthew Cathedral! Children in grades K-8 are encouraged to attend weekly classes during the school year to grow in their faith and familiarity with the Bible and Catholic Tradition. Religious Education classes also serve as Sacramental preparation for children who will be receiving First Communion and Confirmation. Classes will start on Wednesday, September 6th and will run through the school year from 6:00pm-7:15pm.

The registration fee is $45 for the first child, and $10 for each additional child in the family. Please bring cash or a check to the first night of class.

Feel free to reach out to John Fyrqvist at dre@smcathedral.org with any questions.
