WELCOME!
Welcome to our Faith Formation page! My name is Karen Tarmey. For those of you who do not know me very well, my husband, Michael, our two daughters, Cara and Sofia, and I have been members of St. Mary’s Parish for over twenty-five years. Our girls attended and graduated from St. Mary’s School. Michael is on the St. Mary’s Parish Council. I have been a Catechist for several years during our time in Melrose. I retired in June 2018 after a thirty-one year career in Special Education, as a teacher and an administrator. I have held the Coordinator of Religious Education position for Grades 1-8 for a year and now I am excited for this expanded opportunity to work with our high schoolers as they prepare to receive the Sacrament of Confirmation.

SACRAMENT PREPARATION PROGRAMS
In order to make certain that our children are truly prepared to receive the Sacraments of Reconciliation, Eucharist and Confirmation, the foundation of their faith development is critical and must be solid for further spiritual development.
Our First Reconciliation/First Eucharist and Confirmation programs are two year programs.
Our First Reconciliation/First Eucharist begins in Grade 1. The Sacraments are typically received in Grade 2 or after the completion of the two years.
Our Confirmation program is a two year program beginning in Grade 9 with Confirmation 1 regardless of what high school the student attends. The Sacrament is typically received in Grade 10 or after the completion of Confirmation 1 and Confirmation 2
