Welcome to PREP
-
The Parish Religious Education Program (PREP) assists parents -- the first and primary teachers of the faith -- in the religious education and sacramental preparation of their children.
PREP text books are approved by the Archdiocese of Philadelphia and follow the Archdiocesan Guidelines, and the textbooks are approved by the U. S. Conference of Catholic Bishops.For the 2021-2022 year we plan to offer in-person classes.
Classes are held every Sunday morning from 9:15am - 10:45am in St. Cecilia's School.
We are currently enrolling students for classes in preK/K thru level 7 (Confirmation) and we welcome students with special needs. RCIA classes for youth are available as well as bridge classes for older youth who were baptized but are just beginning formalized religious instruction.
The St Cecilia PREP year will run from Sunday September 12, 2021 till Sunday May 1, 2022. Our kickoff will begin with the 9:30 Mass and an assembly following in the auditorium with class distribution and the catechist meet and greet.
