“We made a switch this year for religious education and enrolled our children in Christ the King’s CCD program. This program immediately made Bill and I feel at home (again) and there was no question that we wanted to become a part of the parish. Our kids walk away from every CCD class excited and love coming back.” – Dorrie McCarthy Register for CCD Classes/Sacramental Prep (2024-2025) Classes start October 15, 2024!
