HM Kids: Teaching our Children to Live a God Filled Life…

One of the greatest gifts we can give to our children is the gift of Faith. At Holy Martyrs, we believe that giving children the opportunity to Encounter Christ, Grow in Faith, and Be Disciples will lead our children toward a journey of lifelong faith. 

HM Kids at Holy Martyrs Church helps our children in grades K-6 form faith with friends in our church community and build relationships with their faith learning community, their Catechist, and most importantly, Jesus. Through community building, prayer, and reflection, our children begin to understand that they can Encounter Christ any time.

We prepare our children, who have previously celebrated the Sacrament of Baptism, to celebrate the Sacraments of Reconciliation and Eucharist in second grade.  

HM Kids is open to children who are members of Holy Martyrs Parish. Children of families in our parish who attend parochial school, and would like to celebrate our HM Kids Community Events and Altar Server Training (5th grade), are welcome.  

To ensure the safety of all children, our HM Kids Catechist Team members have been trained in Protecting God’s Children, a program designed to teach adults how to keep our children safe. 

Safety and Security:

We ask that all parents and family members:

  • Sign their child in at the kiosk and receive two name tags, one for your child to wear and one to pick them up. 
  • Bring children to the classroom at the beginning of class, but no earlier than 6:00 PM.
  • Return to the classroom five minutes before the end of the session (7:10 PM) with the second name tag to pick up their child and to pray with their child in closing prayer. 
  • We will send a link to a Google Form for Car Pooling purposes

We look forward to partnering with our parents and families to help our children form a strong faith and prayer experience to last a lifetime. Please contact Shannon Federinko with any questions:
