Catechesis of the Good Shepherd

We have two atriums on Sunday mornings led by our trained Catechists Cheryl Berg and Maria Romero and assistants.

Together, they lead our children in the love and knowledge of Jesus Christ through stories and faith in the Good Shepherd. They are each married with children and grandchildren of their own. Maria leads The Good Shepherd atrium for 3-6 year olds and Cheryl The True Vine atrium for 6-12 year olds.
