Basic Information

The P.R.E.P. Program provides faith formation and instruction for children who attend public school as well as  sacramental    preparation for all the children of the parish.

Our traditional program runs from September to May.  Classes are held on the following dates and times:
Mondays — 4:45 to 6:15 PM
Tuesdays — 6:00 to 7:30 PM

We also offer a Summer Session which takes place the first two weeks after school closes, usually the last 2 weeks in June.  Classes take place from 9:00 AM to 12:30 PM.  In addition to attending classes for two weeks, families are required to attend 4 Family / Parish Gatherings.  Children receiving their 1st Communion or Confirmation are also required to attend refresher classes.

Registration is held in March/April. To register for PREP one MUST be a registered member of St. Robert Bellarmine Parish.

Our PREP program is possible due to our faithful catechists. A catechist is a teacher of the faith.  Any one interested is required to be a person of deep faith with a desire to share that faith.  Training is provided.

Beginning on Monday, May 14th our office hours will be as follows:

Monday—Thursday  8:30 AM to 4:00 PM

Friday — 8:30 AM to 3:00 PM
