The Mission of St. Ann Parish Religious Education
St. Ann Parish Religious Education Program works to evoke and mature in each person an intimate relationship with the Person of Jesus Christ, a love of the Church He founded, and a lifelong process of conversion and missionary witness. It endeavors to develop this relationship with Christ through the liturgy and the sacraments, the promises, and commandments contained in the Good News of His Gospel message, as well as through prayer and service. This effort is accomplished within the context of the student’s family with support from the parish community. “True education is directed towards the formulation of the human person in view of his final end and the good of that society to which he belongs and in the duties of which he will, as an adult, have a share.”
(Declaration on Christian Education, 1)

Curriculum
The curriculum for each grade focuses on 6 subjects: Creed, Sacraments, Moral Development, Prayer, Saints, and Scripture. All grades use doctrine from the Catechism of the Catholic Church plus vocabulary in order to teach these 6 subjects. This Religious Education curriculum is used for the whole diocese of Kalamazoo in parish CCD programs and the Catholic Schools and was last updated in 2014. Find a pdf of the full curriculum here.
As of this 2018, the diocese of Kalamazoo has put out a new compact Parish Curriculum
