Welcome to the Spirit and Light Religious Education!

YEAR 2025-2026

We are excited to begin another year of faith formation and spiritual growth! Whether you are returning or joining us for the first time, we look forward to guiding your child on their journey of faith.

We offer a variety of different religious education programs - Some classes have a Montessori style learning environment with experiential opportunities. Others have a more traditional classroom and use a textbook. Additionally, one has families coming together to share prayer and engage in faith.

This unified religious education is a part of Spirit and Light: A Catholic Collaborative for Living Faith - It is a catechetical resource for the Catholic Community in Oak Park and the surrounding areas. Its mission is welcoming all and sharing Christian faith within the Catholic context.
