Our Philosophy

Welcome to the School of Religion at Church of the Ascension! Children are a gift and a joy from God. We at Church of the Ascension believe that your children’s faith formation is a continuing journey of faith. It is one that begins in the home and is reinforced by our weekly classes. Our main objective is to teach the students the basic principles of the Catholic faith so that they may come to know and love God more fully in their lives.

Helping students understand the meaning of our Catholic Faith once a week, however, is not enough. It is up to you, as parents, to provide a daily commitment to God by practicing the gift of faith and setting an example for your children. Our efforts will not be effective unless they are combined with your efforts. Together Christ will do great things in our families and Ascension’s SOR Program. Please contact the SOR Office for more information by calling 913-681-7683.
