When:       Sunday, March 10, 2024

As we continue in this season of Lent, this Sunday is known as Laetare Sunday ("rejoice"), which sets a tone of joyful anticipation of the celebration of the Easter Mystery.  We are also approaching the celebration of Holy Week, in which we recall and celebrate the events of the Paschal Mystery of Christ: his Passion, Death, and Resurrection.  As a Religious Education community, let us all come together, students, parents, and catechists alike, in prayer through our celebration of the Eucharist as we prepare to celebrate the events of our salvation.

 

Once again, our Music Ministry choir will be singing and leading us in giving praise to God.  Students from our fourth, fifth, and sixth grade faith formation classes will be participating in the various roles of the Mass.

IMPORTANT REMINDERS - St. Kevin Religious Education   (01-09-2024)

We hope you and your families had a wonderful Christmas and a blessed start to the new year.

 

As we begin the second half of our catechetical year, we would like to remind you of a few important things regarding the program:

 

ATTENDANCE

Please remember that if it is the first or second year of preparation for a sacrament, we allow a maximum of five (5) absences for the year, regardless of the reason, in terms of counting the year towards sacramental preparation.  There are no excused or unexcused absences.  The office may send a courtesy email to the parents to inform them of the number of absences their child has up to that point. 


DRESS CODE

All students are expected to dress modestly, in attire appropriate for class and church.   Students may NOT wear “short” shorts or “short” skirts (must be knee-length), tank tops, sleeveless attire, gym shorts, sweat pants, leggings, ripped jeans, flip-flops, crocs, or large/distracting hair pieces (large bows, animal ears, etc.).


BOOKS / SUPPLIES / BAGS

Every student needs to bring their book(s) to class every week, along with a pencil or pen, and any other supplies requested by their catechist.  Also, only drawstring or canvas bags can be used to carry supplies.  Any other forms or types of bags, including regular school book bags, are NOT allowed.

 


DROP-OFF AND DISMISSAL PROCEDURES

We remind you of the drop-off and dismissal procedures as explained during the Welcome Orientation and sent to you previously via email.  Please refer to the email sent to all families with complete details and information.  


IMPORTANT NOTE:

We would especially like to emphasize the importance of abiding by the dismissal procedures and understanding that they are in place for the safety and security of all of our students in the program.  We strive for the safety of all concerned, including our students, parents, catechists, and staff who are all part of our parish community, and it is expected that all essential guidelines and procedures be followed in furtherance of our efforts.

 


COVID-19 GUIDELINES

The Archdiocese of Miami (ADOM) Covid Policy remains in effect.  All students, families, and catechists are to abide by these guidelines to mitigate risk and promote the safety and well-being of all.


Should your child be sick or display symptoms of illness (i.e. fever, runny nose, cough, congestion, excessive sneezing), they should not come to class and remain at home for the safety and well-being of everyone in the program.  Please send an email to the Religious Education Office.

  

 


We thank you for your support and cooperation.  We look forward to a great second half of this catechetical year! 


MERRY CHRISTMAS AND BLESSED NEW YEAR!   (12-18-2023)

This is a reminder that there will be NO CLASSES from December 18th until January 7th, 2024.  We will be on Christmas Break for three weeks.

 

Classes will resume:

 

*Our schedule of Masses for Christmas and New Year’s can be found below, as well as on our website, www.stkevinrep.org.*

 

Let us remember amidst all the excitement and preparation during these days that the real reason for Christmas is JESUS.  It is a season to reflect, remember, and celebrate this greatest gift that God has given to each and every one of us.  May we welcome Christ into our hearts and allow Him to guide us on our journey of faith.

 

Please also find below a special Christmas message from our pastor, Father Jesús Saldaña, to all of our families in the parish.


We wish you and your family a wonderful and holy Christmas.  May the season lead you and your families to be drawn closer to our Jesus Christ, the Emmanuel, God-with-us.  May the New Year of 2024 be filled with abundant blessings and graces from our Lord above. 


JESUS IS THE REASON FOR ALL THE SEASONS!

CHRISTMAS MESSAGE FROM OUR PASTOR:


Dear brothers and sisters:

Peace and Good Will to all.

From July 17th to July 21st, 2024, the National Eucharistic Congress will take place in Indianapolis, Indiana.  What a great opportunity to be able to meditate on “The Mystery of Faith” within the framework of the intrinsic relationship between the Mystery of Christmas and the Eucharist!  The word “Bethlehem” in Hebrew means “House of Bread,” which is very appropriate with the birth of the Son of God, the “Bread of Life” (John 6:48).  Baptism, Confirmation, and the Eucharist are the Sacraments of Initiation in the Christian life.  Specifically, the Eucharist is the “source and summit” of this life, from what Jesus said and did to the action of the Church, the Real Presence of Christ awaiting the banquet of the end of time.

“The Word became flesh and made his dwelling among us, and we have seen his glory.”  Let us rekindle our commitment to Christ by frequently participating in the celebration of the Eucharist and changing the way we celebrate Christmas.

Merry Christmas and Happy New Year!

Blessings.

We would like to remind you of a few guidelines of utmost importance mentioned at the Parent Orientation to keep in mind throughout the year:


DROP-OFF AND DISMISSAL PROCEDURES

Please remember the drop-off and dismissal procedures as explained during the Welcome Orientation and sent to you via email. 

DRESS CODE

Students should come dressed comfortably, but appropriate for class and church (especially as our catechists often take their classes to the Chapel during class, and we will be participating in Adoration of the Blessed Sacrament during the year).  In other words, all students are expected to dress modestly.  Students are not to wear “short” shorts or “short” skirts (must be knee-length), tank tops, sleeveless attire, gym shorts, sweat pants, leggings, ripped jeans, flip-flops, crocs, or distracting hair pieces (large bows, animal ears, etc.).  Sports uniforms are also not permitted. 


ATTENDANCE

Please remember that for those students in the first or second year of preparation for a sacrament, we allow up to five (5) absences for the year, regardless of the reason, in terms of counting the year toward sacramental preparation.  There are no excused or unexcused absences.  If a student is absent, the office may send a courtesy email to inform you of the number of absences your child has up to that point.  (This guideline does not apply to students in first grade and to students in grades 4-6 who have already received First Communion.)


BOOKS / SUPPLIES / BAGS

Students received their books this past week in class.  The book must be brought to class every week.  Students also need to bring a pencil or pen, along with any other supplies requested by their catechist.  Only drawstring or canvas bags may be used to carry books and supplies.  Regular school book bags are NOT permitted.


FOOD, DRINKS, AND GUM

Please remember that students may not bring any food or drinks to class, including all types of water bottles, as they are not allowed inside the classrooms.  In addition, gum chewing is not permitted.

 


All of the above guidelines are taken from our “Religious Education Handbook,” which contains all the procedures that will be followed this year.  It is available on our website at www.stkevinrep.org, under the “GENERAL CLASS INFO” tab. 

 

Please be sure to also check our website, www.stkevinrep.org, frequently for any updates and new information regarding your child’s Religious Education classes, including class outlines.  The website will be our primary conduit of communicating pertinent information to you.  Also, please check your emails on a regular basis for any important information and reminders we may send throughout the year, and to add our email address to your contact list to ensure that any emails from the program are not sent to your spam/junk folder.  

 

Thank you for your support and cooperation.  May God bless you and your families.
