Our Faith

Christ is at the center of all that we do through every form of aspired growth at St. Philip Neri School.  Our teachers and students pray as a school community daily, go to Masses each week and actively participate in religion classes. 

Students also have the opportunity to go to Reconciliation, participate with their class in Adoration, Benediction and Stations of the Cross, attend prayer services and plan class liturgies throughout the school year. 

The liturgical seasons of Advent and Lent are observed with additional classroom activities and prayer to help students embrace the importance of these times throughout the year.   Our priest, Fr. Damien Cook, visits with each of the classrooms on a bi-weekly basis.  Fr. Cook actively engages with the students to help prepare our students to be children of God and to share their faith with others.

Sacraments

Students in second grade are able to receive the sacraments of Reconciliation and First Holy Communion.  In eighth grade, students prepare to receive the Sacrament of Confirmation.
