7 Mass Reflections and 4 Explore Four Reflections are REQUIRED per family.
See instructions and submission forms below. Refer to the Handbook for more information.
Mass Reflections
Families are expected to complete seven monthly Family Catholic Mass Reflections during the Faith Formation year. The reflection is designed to help facilitate conversations before and after your family’s Mass experience. Family Catholic Mass Reflections are to be submitted by clicking the link below.
Explore Four Reflections
With “Explore 4”, families are expected to participate in at least 4 events sponsored or promoted by St. Jude or the Diocese of Joliet during the course of each Faith Formation year. These events are opportunities to help us explore and grow in our faith and community life.
An Explore 4 Reflection form is available at the link below for your family to reflect on your experience after attending/participating in an activity. Families should submit reflections for 4 different events or activities. Any event that happens at St. Jude that is not Mass or the Sacrament of Reconciliation may be an Explore 4 opportunity as long as you complete and submit a reflection form. Sacramental preparation does qualify as an Explore 4 opportunity if a reflection is submitted.
