Guiding RAY – Our Christian Formation Program

guidingray1

Those who are led by the Spirit of God are
children of God

Romans 8:14

At Saint Mary’s, we are committed to the spiritual formation of the children in our community. Our Guiding RAY program provides fun and interactive religious instruction for Pre K through 6th grade.

 

Please refer to the children’s calendar for the WINTER-SPRING schedule which also includes a few parish-wide special events. 

We begin our regular Sundays at 9:15 am in the lower level of the parish house. This is a time for the children to come together for free play, making friends, sharing, singing, and special visitors. Guiding RAY classes begin at 10:00 am and our lessons are based on the Workshop Rotation Model.

Childcare for babies and toddlers (up to 3 years) is provided in the Nursery.

At 10:45 am the children join their parents in the church building to celebrate the Eucharist. There is a “Quiet Box” in the rear of the church with activity packets, related to the current monthly theme, for those children who need a quiet activity during the more contemplative part of the service.

Guiding RAY is a cooperative program so we hope all parents will volunteer in some way. Whether you choose to teach, substitute, help with a movie day or special event your efforts will be greatly appreciated. Please reach out to Meg Hurdman at 207-400-9011 or guidingray@smary.org with any questions.
