Welcome to the resource and home study section of our parish website. PSR At Home Hub follows the lessons from Pflaum Gospel Weeklies, that your child will use every Sunday. This is a liturgically-based catechetical program that helps parents participate in the important role as the first educators of your children.
Our program also incorporates involvement in parish activities to enrich the children's faith life. It embraces all ages and generations, promotes faith growth at home, and promotes participation in Church life.
To familiarize yourself with the HUB,-
Download “Pflaum Gospel Weeklies – An Introduction for Families” for an overview and instructions on how the series works.
-
Then scroll down to the section corresponding to your child's grade and view the tabs for Pflaum Resources, Gospel Readings, Student Activities, Family & Parish Activities, and Sacramental Information.
Each Friday or Saturday, you will receive an e-mail with instructions and any special items for Sunday’s lesson. Don't hesitate to reach out to our Director of Religious Education, Peg Haney (330-274-2268), or your child's catechist if you should need any help.
