Confraternaty of Christian Doctrine (CCD)

What Is CCD?

The Confraternity of Christian Doctrine was an association established at Rome in 1562 for the purpose of providing religious education. Today CCD refers to a religious education program of the Catholic Church, normally designed for children.

Our Parish CCD Program - Grades 1st through 8th

Christ the Divine Shepherd Parish students who attend public school receive their Faith Formation through our parish CCD program which consists of class study and preparation for the reception of the sacraments. The goal of the parish CCD program is to enable and encourage the students to learn more about their faith.

The mission of Christ the Divine Shepherd Parish's Religious Education Program is to deepen in our children their awareness and understanding of God’s loving presence in their lives and to strengthen in them the Christian message of justice and love.
