Welcome!
You have logged in to the Saturday catechism at St Francis, one of the 4 English Catechism Programmes that are part of the Parish of St. Francis of Assisi, Jebel Ali. We are excited by the opportunity the site presents to our catechism group, to share and grow in our Catholic faith. Our programme provides faith formation for children ranging from Kindergarten to Confirmation, i.e. ages 5 to 14 and above. Classes operate on Saturdays, with Catechism at 4:15 pm, followed by Mass from 5:30 to 6:30 pm.
St Francis hosts three other catechism programmes...
Friday, 08.50 am Catechism with Mass at 10.15 am
Friday, 09.00 am Mass with Catechism at 10.15 am
Sunday, 5.00 pm Catechism with Mass at 6.00 pm

The Saturday Catechism administration has now closed the Hall 8 office and is now only operating online through its email address: [email protected] till 30 June 2015. We will re-open communication 22 August 2015.
Are you returning to the Saturday programme in September?
If you are returning to the Saturday catechism in September...come back end August to re-register your interest on either 29 August or 05 September between 3 - 7 pm. Classes begin 12th September 2015.
We need volunteers to support our masses!
Ushering; guiding parishioners during Holy Communion; managing people movement; guiding senior citizens and parents with young ones to more convenient locations...are some of the tasks we volunteers take on...You probably watch me or the rest of the parish team with the yellow lanyards do the same. Let's make it a fantastic experience for everyone visiting us through that week.
Seeking parent assistants for our classes...
We have a few catechists who will be leaving us after we close for the year. We need catechists as well as parent assistants - parents who can help with attendance; maintaining decorum in class and motivating the children to participate. If you can spare some time between 4 and 5:15 pm, please pop by Hall 8 and let me know that you are available to volunteer in a class.
