Children’s Faith Formation (CFF)

The Children’s Faith Formation (CFF) program is for those who attend private and public schools in grades K to 8 and wish to receive their faith formation through our parish CFF program. The program consists of class study and preparation for the reception of the sacraments of Baptism, Reconciliation, Eucharist, and Confirmation. The goal of our parish CFF program is to enable and encourage the students to learn more about their faith.

When: Religion classes will be taught on Sunday from 9:00am to 11:00am at St. Thomas the Apostle Parish (720 40th Avenue, San Francisco).

For more information about our CFF program, please contact Sr. Noreen O’Connor at (415) 751-5275 / noconnor@csjla.org.

‘Let the children come to me; do not prevent them, for the Kingdom of God belongs to them.”  – Mark 10:13-14
