Much like the Scouting program, these are challenges that you complete and earn a patch for! 

We will be participating in the Challenge Patch Program to encourage and foster spiritual growth in the family and among youth. This can be compelted at any age level! 

The Challenge Patches are created and distrubuted by the Catholic Sprouts ministry!

You can read more about it here ---> https://catholicsprouts.com/challenge-patches/

8th Graders receiving Confirmation will be required to complete THREE of the challenges in order to receive Confirmation, in lieu of traditional community service.

They are:
The Spiritual Works of Mercy
The Corporeal Works of Mercy
My Saint Friend

For students in other grades besides 8th: - Complete the Program before the 8th grade year and you may waive the requirement for Community Service/Patches!

How it Works:

Instead of returning the completed paper to Catholic Sprouts, we will collect them to give you credit for our program. We will mail the sheet in for you and distribute the patches when they come in. This way we can save you postage, and send a donation to Catholic Sprouts on behalf of the program each time we send them a package of completed sheets.
