Registrations for the PREP 2020-2021 schoolyear opens September 8th.

The suspended 2019-2020 PREP schedule will resume the week of September 13th for levels 2, 3, & 7 ONLY. These are the Penance, First Holy Communion, and Confirmation classes. Your teachers will notify you on the protocols for classes, such as the day and time that your class will meet, and whether it is virtual or in person.

All PREP levels will move up in October and classes for ALL LEVELS will begin the week of October 11th. The new PREP year is starting after the rescheduled sacraments are administered so that all students can start the new PREP year together. (For example, if your child is a Level 3 in September, they will be a Level 4 in October. If your child was a Level 4 in March, they will be a Level 5 in October.)

Parents/Guardians please be sure to reregister for the 2020-2021-year. The registration form can be found here and is available at the Rectory and in the vestibule (back) of the Chapel.

Again, the majority of classes will meet virtually and may meet on a different day and time from the traditional Thursday evening PREP schedule.

Questions? Please call or email David at the rectory – 215-535-6667.

O Mary, You shine continuously on our journey as a sign of salvation and hope. We entrust ourselves to you, Health of the Sick, who, at the foot of the cross, were united with Jesus’ suffering, and persevered in your faith. “Protectress of the Roman people,” you know our needs,and we know that you will provide, so that, as at Cana in Galilee, joy and celebration may return after this time of trial. Help us, Mother of Divine Love, to conform ourselves to the will of the Father and to do what Jesus tells us. For he took upon himself our suffering, and burdened himself with our sorrows to bring us, through the cross, to the joy of the Resurrection. Amen.

 

We fly to your protection, O Holy Mother of God; do not despise our petitions in our necessities, but deliver us always from every danger, O Glorious and Blessed Virgin.

 

Holy God, Holy Mighty One, Holy Immortal One, have mercy on us and on the whole world. Jesus, we trust in you!
