Welcome to another exciting year of Confraternity of Christian Doctrine (CCD) with Divine Mercy Parish. We would like to thank you for entrusting your child’s Catholic Christian formation with us. As Parents, you are primary teachers, educators of your child with regards to their Catholic Faith. The examples that you provide at home, your dedication to our catholic faith and sacraments as a family is an integral part of your child’s spiritual journey.  

As part of our mission to educate your child, Divine Mercy Parish in Rahway is the only parish in the Diocese of Newark that is providing a comprehensive Parent Formation Workshop.  These are classes  that will provide the Parents to grow deeper in their Catholic Faith.  We will be rediscovering our rich Catholic faith, and will provide information and resources from the Catechism of the Catholic Church for you and your family to help you and your children grow spiritually.  We encourage that you attend the Sunday mass after your child’s class and to participate in the sacrament of Eucharist and Reconciliation regularly.

REMINDERS FOR 2019

Reborn explores the deeply personal power of Baptism, bringing to light the spiritual reality for parents and godparents and, most importantly, the child being baptized. Reborn presents the foundation of the Church’s teaching on Baptism, with a step-by-step explanation of the rite itself, including its profound place in Scripture and Tradition.
