Welcome to the Religious Education Program at Divine Infant Jesus and Divine Providence Parish. My name is Sister Christine Nantaba, IHMR, the new Religious Education Administrator here at our newly combined Parish.  We thank God for blessing us with the opportunity of continuing to nurture the faith of all of our children, which is the mission of our Parish and our universal Catholic Church.   

As you may be aware, Divine Infant Jesus and Divine Providence Parishes were combined and became one Parish on July 1, 2019; by the Archdiocese of Chicago through a process of renewal called “Renew My Church.”  A process is underway to accommodate the necessary changes which will enable the two parishes to operate as one. 
The Religious Education Office has had to make some adjustments in lieu of this process as listed below:

         1. Divine Infant and Divine Providence Parish will have ONE Religious Education Program with one administrator, Sr. Christine Nantaba, IHMR.

         2. Religion classes will be offered at each of the two locations (at Divine Infant and Divine Providence) in the school buildings as it was done before. 

         3. A new registration form for both NEW and RETURNING students will be available at dprov.org under  the Religious Education Tab beginning on July 15, 2019.  Please specify what location you would like to have your child(ren) attend the Religious Education classes when you fill out the registration form.

         4. Completed Registration Forms should be dropped off at the Rectory of either Divine Infant or Divine Providence locations Monday-Friday between 8:30am-5pm. There is a deposit of $35 due at the time of registration.
         
         5. A Calendar of the Religion Classes and a Sacramental Calendar for First Communion and Confirmation dates will be available soon.       
        
         6. The Tuition for grades 1-8 and the Sacramental fees for children due to receive First Communion and Confirmation have been adjusted as follows:

            Tuition for 2019 – 2020 (Due by December 1, 2019)
            $250 for 1 child
            $350 for 2 children
            $450 for 3 children or more.

            Sacramental Fees for 2019 – 2020 (Due by December 1, 2019)
            $50 for Holy Eucharist (First Communion)
            $80 for Confirmation

 
 
I invite you to partner with us as we strive to enhance the formation of our students’ faith; helping them to become what God intended them to be in life.  May the Holy Spirit enlighten us and guide us in the proper ways of accomplishing this task. 

May God continue to bless you and your family!
