You are invited to schedule a visit with the Director of Children’s Ministry, to discuss how our parish can nurture your 3yrs - 5th grade child's faith journey, including Mass attendance, participating in Faith Formation, and preparing for the Sacraments of First Holy Communion and First Reconciliation.

Help us learn ways St. John Neumann can support your family and create a welcoming environment for your child.  We value your questions, concerns, and suggestions. 

 Find more information and resources on the Austin Diocese Special Needs webpage. 

All persons with disabilities of special needs should be welcomed in the Church. Every person, however limited, is capable of growth in holiness. "The love of the Father for the weakest of his children and the continuous presence of Jesus and His Spirit give assurance that every person, however, limited, is capable of growth in holiness." Some persons with disabilities live in isolating conditions that make it difficult for them to participate in catechetical experiences. "Since provision of access to religious functions is a pastoral duty," parishes should make that much more effort to include those who may feel excluded.
