​You may have heard the buzz about the Sacrament of Confirmation moving to second grade here in the Diocese of Honolulu. The change is actually a move to restore the proper, or original, order of the Sacraments of Initiation: Baptism, Confirmation and then First Holy Communion. As it stands now, children are typically baptized as infants, receive First Holy Communion in the second grade, and then are confirmed as teens (most often as high school sophomores). In the future, both Confirmation and First Holy Communion will be received beginning in the second grade. OLS will move to this "Restored Order" of the sacraments beginning 2018-2019 academic year. This change naturally raises a lot of questions, especially for parents with children who may be affected by this transition.

Please contact the Religious Education Coordinator if you have any questions.

Become a catechist!

We are always in need of catechists and assistants.  If you are interested in becoming a catechist or want to receive more information about this awesome ministry, please contact Shirley Caban at the Religious Education Office.
TOP REASONS TO BECOME A CATECHIST:
  1. You will grow in your own faith, learn the teachings of the Church, and deepen your relationship with Jesus
  2. Your baptism calls you to share in Jesus’ ministry
  3. Children, teens, and adults in today’s world, more than ever, need to hear the Good News of Jesus
  4. Children, teens, and adults in today’s world, more than ever, need to encounter good role models of faith
  5. You have much to share with those you’ll teach and you’ll have opportunities to share faith with other catechists
  6. Today’s catechetical textbooks/resources offer outstanding support
  7. You’ll be challenged, you’ll have fun, and you’ll make new friends
  8. You’ll be helping people deepen their relationship with Jesus (you’ll be evangelizing!)
  9. You’ll be handing on a 2000-year-old Tradition that changes lives
  10. It’s our job: Jesus sent us to “go and teach all nations”
