St. Anthony Parish has succesfully used the Loreto Model of religious education of children for twenty years. Traditional afterschool or Saturday morning classes seemed almost to be punishment for a child and didn't bring out a child's natural enthusiasm for learning. The Loreto Model was developed at Our Lady of Loreto Parish in Worcester to address that concern.
Our summer religious education program will be held the weeks of July 18th – 22nd and July 25th – 29th from 9:00 AM to 12:30 PM. This year the theme is Scripture. This program is for all children who have completed 1st grade – 8th grade and who do not attend a Catholic school. For information please call Ellen at the school office (978-345-7785) or email her at edepatie@worcesterdiocesek12.org. Registration form available here.
St. Joseph’s Parish will be having their program August 1st – 5th and August 8th – 12th. If you are unable to attend St. Anthony’s either one or both weeks, you may register your children at St. Joseph’s. You need to speak with Mrs. Betty Brunell.
