Faith Formation

Our work here at St. Francis of Assisi Parish is to assist parents in providing a strong foundation of faith for their children. Parents are the primary catechists in a child's life. Continuously nurturing the seeds of faith is necessary for a full bloom!
We suggest families make an effort to:

• Pray together
• Talk about faith in your home
• Attend Mass every weekend
• Attend other church events together

Registration is in August, but families are welcome to join us at any time. We are always seeking parents (and grandparents!) to be actively involved in our programs too. If you are seeking sacraments for your child, check out the Sacraments page to learn about Baptism, First Reconciliation, and First Communion.

Contact Citlalli Cisneros or Sara Cross through the parish office (641) 752-6278 to learn more about participating!

Are your kids very busy during the school year but looking for summer activities?  We have those too!

• Totus Tuus: a deeply scriptural week run by travelling college students
• Vacation Bible School: a week that brings people of all ages together in bible-based activities for kids
