The Knights of Columbus, Saint John Fisher council 15734 would like to invite our young community to take part in the Knights of Columbus “Keep Christ in Christmas” poster contest for all boys and girls from ages 5 through 14. By engaging the talents of our young people, we hope they will come to a deeper understanding of the true meaning of Christmas, and that their artwork will bring others to remember Christ in Christmas. The contest will be conducted locally with winning entries advancing through district/regional and state competitions to the international level. The winning entries will serve as the basis for a series of international “Keep Christ in Christmas” posters, with creative credit going to the artists. Age eligibly is determined by the age of the contestant as of November 1st . Poster must be 11X17 inches in size, If pastels, chalk or charcoal are used the poster must be laminated or covered with clear plastic. Each poster must be submitted with a Knights of Columbus “Keep Christ in Christmas” Poster Contest entry form — make sure your council number is included (council 15734). The name and age of the entrant should be printed on the reverse side of the poster in case the poster and entry form get separated.

Welcome, Families of St. John Fisher ParishWe practice and live our faith by actively participating in a relationship with Christ. We invite you and your family to embrace and grow in faith with the support and guidance of faith formation.
Kindergarten - 8th Grade Family Faith Formation For Kindergarten through 8th grade, we are excited to announce a newly redesigned Family Faith Formation program that we hope will allow us to partner more fully with our families while ensuring that we can provide a safe and flexible environment which does not compromise the quality of the Faith Education provided. With that said, we have had to change our program location for elementary aged students as we are no longer able to use space at Marlborough Elementary School. We have developed a multi-faceted program where some instruction will be online and some will happen in person at the church, unless local and state guidelines change. ZOOM classes will also be used as needed. Our new program combines catechesis, hands-on activities, family activities, prayer, Mass, and service to others. As this year continues, our program may need to change and adapt and we thank you in advance for your patience, support, and flexibility. Please click on the Family Faith Formation tab (above) for more information. Our goal continues to be that our youth develop a loving and powerful relationship with Jesus Christ which transforms their hearts and provides them with the tools to witness the faith by living the message of the Gospels. Confirmation Program Our Confirmation program is geared to 9th graders with a goal of receiving the sacrament in the Fall of their 10th grade year when they publicly claim this faith as their own. High School Youth Group Your faith practice doesn't end when Faith Formation classes stop! We welcome all high schoolers to join us for fun, fellowship, and service opportunities. Adults Throughout the year, St. John Fisher opportunities are offered for adults to gather, grow, and serve as Christians. |
