Forming the Saint

FORMING THE SAINT

"Raise up a child in the way he should go, and when he is old he will not depart from it."

-Proverbs 22:6

"Jesus said, 'Let the children come to me, and do not prevent them; for the kingdom of heaven belongs to such as these.”'

-Matthew 19:14

At St. Aloysius Catholic School, children learn to live out God's will for them and how to practice His teachings daily. Students participate in weekly Mass in attendance, as lectors, gift bearers and cantors. Catholic students may also participate in the Sacraments and are able to assist in the Mass as servers. All students receive religious instruction and pray daily in preparation for their continued growth as Children of God. The Catholic Church liturgical calendar is celebrated and observed through special seasons such as Christmas, Lent, Holy Week, and Easter.   Prayer such as Stations of The Cross, Easter celebrations, Christmas celebrations, Rosary, Divine Mercy Chaplet and Feasts of The Saints to name a few are also celebrated throughout the school year.


We work to live out our mission every day in faith formation, academically in the classroom, and in our community by serving those in need.  We strive to reach out in Acts of Love by spending time with the elderly in local nursing homes, with children hospitalized for extended periods, working at the Franciscan Center and the Women's Care Centers in Fort Wayne, making prayer cards for those serving in the military, making scripture notes for the homeless among other methods of service outreach.  A few of our Works of Mercy include collections of needed items for the Franciscan Center, Ave Maria House, Mustard Seed Furniture Bank, Street Reach, Women's Care Centers, local food banks.


We praise God for the opportunity to cooperate with the family to form our young people over the years.  We pray that we work and learn according to God's will for our St. Aloysius Catholic School Community!
