The mission of Our Lady of Good Counsel’s CCF program is to proclaim Christ’s message and help students apply it to their lives to foster community, prayer, worship, and the desire to serve the Lord.

“Catholic education refers to the totality of the Church’s efforts to make disciples, to help all believe that Jesus is the Son of God so that believing they might have life in his name, and to educate and instruct them in this life, in order to build up the body of Christ.” (CF. CCC 4)

An integral part of Catholic Education is catechesis. “Catechesis is an education in the faith of children, young people, and adults which includes especially the teaching of Christian doctrine imparted, generally speaking, in an organic and systematic way, with a view to initiating the hearers into the fullness of the Christian life.” (CCC 5)

Our Catholic Christian Formation (CCF) for children and youth is divided into two sections:

• Elementary CCF: Grades PreK-6 
• Junior High CCF: Grades 7-8

Faith formation for high school students (grades 9-12), as well as social activities and service opportunities for junior high students (grades 6-8), is offered by OLGC’s Youth Ministry.
