Each year on Holy Saturday during the Easter Vigil, thousands are baptized into the Catholic Church in the United States. Parishes welcome these new Catholics through the Rite of Christian Initiation of Adults (RCIA). If you would like to discuss joining the Catholic church contact the church office at 605-624-4478.
St. Agnes offers religious education (often called CCD or CYO) Wednesday evenings during the school year for youth in grades K-12. Middle school and high school students meet in small peer groups with adult mentor teachers to guide them on their faith journey. Students in grade 10 meet as a class to prepare for the sacrament of confirmation. A variety of media is used to teach and engage students in the lessons including video, small group discussions and websites.
Contact Kris Larson, Director of Faith Formation at 605-624-4478 with any questions.
