Parish School of Religion (PSR)
Contact: Charles Hunt, Director of Religious Education, 440-946-3287 or Charles@stjustin.net
The St. Justin Martyr Parish School of Religion (PSR) is at the service of parents, assisting them with the important task of teaching the Catholic Faith to their children who attend school in the public system.
The goal of PSR is to form children as disciples of Jesus by developing their understanding of Christian doctrine, encouraging a Christian moral life, inviting worship and prayer in Catholic liturgy and orienting them to service.
Classes for grades 1-8 are held on Monday nights during the school year from 7:00-8:15pm.
The teaching staff is comprised of adult volunteers who are called to share their faith with the youngsters of the SJM parish community. We are extremely blessed with this dedicated group of parishioners, many of whom have been sharing their time and faith for an impressive number of years.
